All boys in the Sixth Form at John Lyon are given tailored support when applying to Higher Education. The majority of our boys aspire to the most competitive institutions and courses and the school has a dedicated UCAS co-ordinator who works closely with the boys and their tutors to ensure that the applications submitted are of the highest standard. For those who aspire to study at Oxford and Cambridge, who wish to read medicine or are applying to other courses which may require an interview, a special programme is in place to prepare those candidates. Each week the group meets and the boys lead the discussion, guided by a member of staff, on a topic of their own choosing. The sessions are lively, challenging and help the boys to see the areas of cross over between their chosen disciplines.
