Event description
Life after CANDI (City and Islington Sixth Form College)
City & Islington Sixth Form College is fully inclusive and part of a large inner-London FE college serving boroughs with very high levels of economic and educational disadvantage. Many of our students will be first in their family to progress to University and will be from non-professional backgrounds. This event is targeted at Year 13 students who are in their final year of A level study in a wide range of subjects. The majority of students will be planning on entering University in Sep 2017 but some may also be considering work, apprenticeships or gap years. It will be useful for students to hear from speakers about how they made their career decisions. Perhaps how they dealt with any setbacks and what they feel are the key skills to success. We are hoping that CANDI Alumni will also join the talk and contribute with their insight/experiences since leaving college.
