Where next? What influences the choices school leavers make?
Friday 02 July 2021
14:00 - 14:50
Open to all
Summary
Join the co-authors of UCAS’ first ‘Where next?’ report, which explores the topic of student choice. Choice is endless, but how do students make these choices, and how does this differ by pathway? To what extent do the choices students make in school affect their next steps? And how should we support students in making informed and aspirational decisions?
Learning outcomes:
At the session, you will:
- Know more about when and how students make decisions
- Find out more about which HE subjects have more ‘fixed’ routes relative to those that are more ‘fluid’
- Hear the key recommendations arising from the report
- Understand how you can work with UCAS to better support your students in making the right decision for them
