Most pupils go straight on to further or higher education upon leaving Babington House, choosing universities in both the UK and internationally.
Our students study a wide range of subjects, including medicine, mathematics, law, economics, science, languages and the arts. Most of our students progress to Russell Group Universities and the majority get their preferred choice of course at their first choice of University.
The Higher Education and Careers Department provides information, advice and guidance to help pupils make choices and decisions that are right for them. The Department organises a programme of activities and events to support pupils in building employability skills, developing applications and making informed choices about their future.
We operate an open-door policy for pupils to ‘drop in’ to discuss any careers related issues. Individual advice and discussion is always available and is actively encouraged.
What do our students say?
Abigail, a recent leaver commented, “The ongoing support and guidance I received from Babington staff throughout my time in the Sixth Form and during the UCAS application process, was incredible.”
Chloe, a recent leaver commented, “I was offered an impressively low grade to read Pure Mathematics at Exeter University. I know the reason I obtained this was because of the interview preparation and help I received with my application at Babington. Thank you so much!”
Hadi, a recent leaver commented, “I am so grateful for my time at Babington. All the teachers have gone above and beyond for me, encouraging me to persevere often when life was hardest. Thank you for believing in me. I smashed it!”
