University Destinations: where Kingsley leavers go next

Destinations are the outcome of a settled, individualised education rather than a selective intake. Every destination listed here comes from the school’s own verified records.

How our Futures support leads here

Guidance runs across the whole of Sixth Form

Guidance runs across the whole of Sixth Form, not only in the final term. Pupils work with staff who know them well on course choices, personal statements, entrance tests and interviews, alongside advice on apprenticeships and alternative routes. The aim is a considered destination that suits the individual, chosen with good information and time to reflect.

We do not publish a figure or a place until it has been confirmed, and the list is dated and reviewed each year.

Apprenticeships and alternative pathways

University is one route among several

School to supply

A degree apprenticeship or a vocational pathway is the right choice for some Kingsley leavers. This section will set out the verified routes recent students have gone on to.

Named apprenticeships, employers and creative or sporting pathways for recent leavers. Do not publish until confirmed.

The Top Universities Programme

Focused mentoring for the most selective courses

For pupils aiming at the most selective courses, the school runs the Top Universities Programme: focused mentoring for Oxbridge, Medicine, Veterinary and Engineering applications, together with academic enrichment beyond the exam syllabus such as wider reading, super-curricular projects and preparation for admissions tests and interviews.

A particular aim of our STEM work is to encourage as many pupils as possible onto STEM degrees at the UK’s top universities, with the mentoring and subject stretch to match that ambition.

Results that support these outcomes

Strong destinations rest on strong outcomes

Value Added measures the progress pupils make against their starting points, which matters for a proudly non-selective school where destinations are earned through the support each pupil receives.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

Where do Kingsley students go after Sixth Form?

Most Sixth Form leavers progress to university, while others take up degree apprenticeships or creative and sporting pathways. The school publishes its verified destinations list above and updates it each year.

Which universities do leavers attend?

Recent destinations run from Exeter, Plymouth, Bristol, Bath and Falmouth in the South West to Cardiff, Oxford, Cambridge, Imperial, UCL, Manchester, Leeds, Newcastle and Edinburgh. Every university and course on the map comes from the school’s own verified records.

Do you support Oxbridge, Medicine and apprenticeship pathways?

Yes. The Top Universities Programme gives focused mentoring for Oxbridge, Medicine, Veterinary and Engineering applications, with admissions test and interview preparation alongside it. Degree apprenticeships and vocational routes are supported through the same Futures guidance, which runs across the whole of Sixth Form.
