With most of the students’ examinations coming to an end, the Future Pathways Team is steering the focus back to university and career planning. In addition to supporting our Year 13 students with their admission applications and our Year 12 students with refining their university planning, this week we hosted university visits and fairs, as well as a panel discussion with current university students. The University of Surrey and The University of Warwick visited our campus and had meaningful conversations with our students and families. They had the wonderful opportunity to explore the many programs of study and opportunities as well as learn about student life in the UK. In addition to these visits, Bangkok Prep hosted two separate university fairs this week highlighting universities in the UK and Australia. Our Year 10-13 students and their families met with the representatives and explored study opportunities from 13 universities in the UK and 13 universities in Australia. A special thank you to all of the admission recruiters for visiting Bangkok Prep and taking the time to help us with our university planning!
