Parents of Yr 12s (or ambitious Yr 11s) - new workshop/webinar just added to my website titled "Help! I don't know what to study at university." This is perfect for young people feeling the pressure to start towards towards their UCAS applications but still unsure about the direction they want to take. It will talk you through academic 'v' vocational options, give information on specialist and multidisciplinary courses and also bust some of the many myths that exist around degree choice and possible career outcomes. 3 other workshops also available, as well as 1-to-1 support. Just let me know if I can help 🙂I will add that I am happy to set up live sessions for any of these workshops if demand is there.

How cool is that? What a great additional perk to offer. 😁
