University and Higher Education

University is one possible post-18 pathway that some students may choose after completing further education, such as A-levels or equivalent qualifications. This page provides links to trusted websites to help students and parents explore university courses, entry requirements and student life.

Although university is a post-18 option, learning about higher education at this stage helps students understand long-term pathways and keep their options open.
