Post-18 Options

What Are Your Options After Sixth Form?

 

On this page we will aim to provide students with a comprehensive guide on how to make the best choice for their future, in preparation for when they leave Sixth Form.

 

Below are links to brochures and websites that will help students decide on the best universities, courses, apprenticeships and information university finance.

In the Year 13 section of the website you can discover where Queen Elizabeth's students have studied and more after graduating from Sixth Form.

In March 2023, Year 12 had a Post 18 Options Evening. The Sixth Form Team introduced speakers from CXK and University of Kent to speak to parents and students about the next steps for our students after their A Levels are complete. Their presentations are available to view and download from the bottom of this page (the 2022 version was used in 2023 as well).
