Supporting Your Child with University & Degree Apprenticeship Applications

​Not sure how best to support your child with university or degree apprenticeship applications?

​A practical online session for parents of students in Years 11–13, focused on navigating university and degree apprenticeship applications with clarity and confidence.

​The post-18 landscape is more competitive and complex than ever. Strong grades are no longer the only factor — students are expected to make well-informed choices, demonstrate genuine interest in their subject, and present themselves effectively through their applications.

​At the same time, degree apprenticeships are becoming an increasingly attractive option, but with far fewer places available and highly competitive selection processes.

​By the end of the session, you will have a clearer understanding of the options available and how to support your child with confidence.

​We will cover:

• ​The current university and degree apprenticeship landscape

• ​Common mistakes students make during the application process

• ​What strong applications look like

• ​How students can prepare effectively

• ​What parents can do to support their child

​Please submit any questions in advance to hello@thomascoleeducation.co.uk

​This is a free session.

​If you would like tailored support following the session, there will be an opportunity to book a free initial consultation.
