Hello from the Careers' Corner.

Mrs Jan Kershaw —

A number of Universities will be paying St Bede's College a visit over the next few months. This is a good time to ask some of those nagging questions about courses, prerequisites, accommodation, allowances, scholarships and Halls of Residence.

The new academic year is starting to get underway, so we have a number of important dates to pop in your google calendar, starting with the University visits to school.
