Post-18 & Pathways
Whether your future is to study at university, embark on an apprenticeship, or to take a gap year, you are certain to be offered the information, advice and guidance you need in order to make informed choices.
Any student, and/or parent/carer now has the opportunity to arrange a meeting with Siobhan Whiddett, our Level 6 Qualified Careers Advisor, to discuss future options and progression routes during and after their time at Notre Dame. To book an appointment with Siobhan or if you have a question about CEIAG provision at NDHS, please click here.

We have pages on specific areas of Post-18 CEIAG
For those students who do not want to go onto university, there are a number of good websites to take a look at, such as Not Going to Uni, which give you a range of information on alternative options after you've left sixth form.
Want to explore some more?
