NFER Estimates based on CATs performance

Lancashire Rose - looks at both CAT scores and Key stage 2 data to produce estimates

Fischer Family Trust: Based on Key Stage 2 SATs

Generates estimates in the form of probabilities based on the actual performance of students with a similar academic profile

All Education Authorities use the Fischer Family Database.

Lancashire actively encourages schools to set targets using FFT

Transition and Careers at PGHS

The early indications from this year's university admissions suggest there could be a record number of applicants.

At the end of last year's admissions process, 209,000 applicants were left without a place.

The latest official figures show that almost a million 16 to 24-year-olds are now looking for work, the highest number since records began in 1992.

"Employers don't expect young people to leave

school 'job ready' but they do need to have these essential English and Maths skills on which they can build throughout their careers."

There is a lot you need to think about to make the right decisions for your future.

Training or college? Which course? Which college? What do I want to do after college? How do I prepare for my chosen career?

A Level Runshaw - 4 GCSE Grade BNewman – 2 GCSE Grade B, 3 GCSE Grade CPreston – 37 points (A = 7points). They look at English, Maths

then 5 other subjects)CHECK in the prospectus. Some courses insist you have a B to

study at A levelYou MUST have English and Maths at C or above; if not you will

have to re-sit. VocationalADVANCED 2 year course, requiring 4 or 5 GCSE C. You may

need certain grades in certain subjects. Equivalent to 2 or 3 A Levels depending on the course. Progression to University is possible with this course.

INTERMEDIATE 1 year course requires 4 or 5 GCSE grade D. Equivalent to 5 GCSEs Grade C when completed.

We are very lucky to have excellent Further Education Providers in this area, whichever college you choose.

Every college will interview you before they offer you a place.

First impressions count! All the colleges will look carefully at your application form and expect a neat application form where the applicant has thought clearly about their course choices.

This is an essential part of your college application and colleges will use this when deciding on an offer of a place.

You need to begin thinking about this in Year 10 – it will be too late in Year 11.

Good spelling punctuation and grammar. Details of any extra curricular activities in

and out of school. Any responsibilities. Any achievements. Any task completed or milestone reached.

Colleges want to know what kind of person an applicant is.

There are a number of factors affecting place offers. Some local colleges are heavily over subscribed – Newman for example receive 2,500 applications for 1,200 places. All colleges will expect the following;

Someone who is polite, responsive, and asks questions at interview.

Who has visited the college and is knowledgeable about the college and the courses it offers.

Who can envisage themselves in the college environment.

Who has thought about course suitability and their career plan.

Makes a good impression. Has a good school reference and personal

statement.

All the colleges will provide you with advice and help with UCAS applications

BUT there is information you need now. Universities are beginning to look at GCSE

grades. Oxbridge and very competitive courses (such

as Law, Medicine or Veterinary Science) will expect 9 or 10 A or A* grades at GCSE.

Universities will check your results using your UPN (Unique Pupil Number). Some universities WILL NOT accept a re-sit grade – they will only accept your original grade (even modular grades at both GCSE and A level)

We have a Careers Resource area in the library where students can access College Prospectuses, University prospectuses, Careers information and use the internet to research possible careers.

Resources and information are on the careers area of the school website, including links to helpful websites and all the local colleges.

Apprenticeship Evening allows students to meet Providers and Employers in this area.
