At the end of their time at LHS, students progress to courses and destinations that help them on their path to becoming who they were meant to be. Whether that’s university, apprenticeships or employment, our Head of Futures works closely with the Sixth Form team to guide, advise and support you in whatever comes next. For the majority of our students that is university. Within our team we have a wealth of knowledge and experience with university applications. Whatever your chosen course or institution, all students receive one-to-one, individualised advice and tailored support. We also have a dedicated team who can guide students through the intricacies of Oxbridge and medical school applications.
