Newman Edge
Newman Edge is a framework delivered through Mentor Time and briefings, designed to help Sixth Form students become future professionals who are equipped for the next stage of their journey.
From Term 3, students will choose a pathway linked to their future aspirations, such as Apprenticeships, Medicine and Veterinary, Oxbridge, University, Health, and Sport Science.
Within each pathway, students will receive a specialist programme of support to help them prepare for their chosen destination. This may include tailored guidance, progression activities, application support and opportunities to develop the skills needed for life beyond Newman.
