On Thursday 26th April 40 students from St Wilfrid’s 6th form attended the Higher Education Fair held at Leeds Metropolitan Beckett’s Park campus. The two-day event gives students the opportunity to research courses and Universities and assists them in the decision making process. At the event students were able to talk to the admissions, college and school liaison representatives about the courses and the admissions policies at the Higher Education institutions. Over one hundred University’s and Higher Education Institutes from all over the Country attended the event, which gave the pupils a wide and varied look at the Universities and courses available. The event was very busy and was well attended by schools and colleges from across West Yorkshire. During the day students were also able to attend various seminars on subjects varying from the UCAS application process to student life and finance. The Higher Education Fair is an integral part of the Higher Education program here at St Wilfrid’s with outside speakers booked for later on this term to advise students on UCAS application and student finance.
