Summer 2027 will roll round quickly for our fantastic Y11 students who are already having to consider their next steps post UVHS, and we have already started our comprehensive program to support everyone to be able to make the right choice for them:

• 🗣️Last week, we hosted our Work Ready Day where every student in Y11 was interviewed by an external business or figure in the community, gaining invaluable, personalised feedback on how to best sell themselves on a CV, application form and in person.
• 🏫This week is the UVHS Careers Fair where the hall will be bursting with local businesses and higher education establishments to offer advice and support on courses at KS5, apprenticeship schemes and more. This coincides with our comprehensive program of speakers from colleges and 6^th form providers in the area who will be delivering inputs on the opportunities they have in assembly slots too throughout the autumn term.
• 📚Pupils are already boosting their revision skills in Personal Development by trialling different revision strategies to see what works best for them, looking at the importance of getting enough sleep and following a healthier lifestyle to support their physical and mental health at such a busy time of their schooling.
• We have been delighted to welcome Daniel Tierney in from MADE training to deliver the ASPEN program to students on setting Aims, Strategies, Planning, Exam Technique and Note taking.
• 📑Look out for the Year 11 reports coming home soon with feedback on how your child has progressed over the last year, and strategies to support them in all their subjects.
• 💻Please check out the Y11 Teams Page for information on all Open Evenings in the area!
