UCAS

Post 18 Pathways

At 麻豆传媒 we understand that students will have different Career Aspirations. Although many of our students advance to Higher Education we have had students go on to some amazing Apprenticeship opportunities. Throughout their decision process we ensure that they have access to impartial advice and guidance on Post 18 opportunities available to them.

How we support our students:

  • All students have a Unifrog account, which enables them to access a range of resources on Higher Education, Apprenticeships and Studying Abroad
  • We have created an electronic ‘Careers Resource Library’ which consists of a series of fact sheets on a selection of Pathways that students may be considering
  • Tutorial lessons
  • Support during IS lessons
  • Drop in sessions with members of the Sixth Form Team
  • Meetings with our career’s advisor, Mrs Adam
  • Practice interviews

 – your child has their own personal login details

UCAS Process: At 麻豆传媒 we start the application process in the Spring Term to ensure our students have ample time to do extensive research before making their final choices. We use an online platform, called Unifrog:

  • Start and keep a record of their research into either Higher Education/ Apprenticeships or Studying Abroad
  • Create shortlists which can rank different courses and institutions based on entry requirements
  • Complete some diagnostic testing to identify the right course or career
  • Series of live UCAS hub sessions to help students with their future plans:

Year 12

Autumn / Spring Term

  1. Introduce students to the range of Post 18 Pathways
  2. Create a Unifrog account
  3. Attending any additional events (like the Tottenham Universities and Apprenticeships Fair)

Summer Term

  1. Register for UCAS
  2. Continue to research courses and entry requirements
  3. Start to draft personal statements

Year 13

Autumn Term (October – December)

  1. Deadline for applications to the universities of Oxford and Cambridge, and for most courses in medicine, dentistry, and veterinary medicine / science
  2. Remaining students complete their UCAS applications
  3. We aim to have processed ALL applications by the end of October

Historic NASA STEM Trip to Florida

A First for Redbridge: 麻豆传媒 Students Embark on Historic NASA STEM Adventure in Orlando, Florida Twenty-seven students become the first young people from the London Borough of Redbridge to experience NASA’s Kennedy Space Centre and an unforgettable programme of STEM learning in Florida For the first time in the history of the London Borough of Redbridge, a group of students has had the extraordinary opportunity to visit NASA’s Kennedy Space Centre and experience the world of space exploration, engineering and innovation first-hand. Twenty-seven students from Years 10–13 at 麻豆传媒 recently returned from a once-in-a-lifetime educational journey to Orlando, Florida, creating a landmark moment for STEM education in the local community. This was far more than a school trip. It was an opportunity for students to stand where history has been made, explore the technology behind humanity’s greatest achievements and see how the science they study in classrooms is transforming the world beyond Earth. Travelling with Norse Atlantic Airways, students spent six days and five nights in Florida, staying at the Rosen Inn at Pointe Orlando. Throughout the trip, students developed independence, confidence and resilience while representing 麻豆传媒 and Redbridge with pride. Reaching New Heights at NASA’s Kennedy Space Centre The highlight of the journey was an inspirational visit to NASA’s Kennedy Space Centre, one of the world’s most iconic centres for space exploration. Students walked among real spacecraft and rockets, explored interactive exhibits, experienced space simulations and discovered the incredible stories behind NASA’s missions. They learned about the Apollo programme, the Space Shuttle era, astronaut training, the International Space Station and the future of human exploration beyond Earth. A particularly inspiring moment was learning about the role of the Hubble Space Telescope and how space technology continues to expand humanity’s understanding of the universe. Students saw how physics, mathematics and engineering combine to overcome extraordinary challenges and make space exploration possible. For many students, seeing genuine spacecraft and the engineering behind these missions transformed ideas from their science lessons into something real and tangible. Inspiring the Next Generation of Scientists and Engineers The students also experienced the power of innovation through two days at Disney Parks, where they took part in science and technology workshops exploring the engineering, creativity and problem-solving behind some of the world’s most advanced entertainment experiences. Students discovered that behind every attraction lies a combination of physics, computer science, mathematics, design and engineering. They gained a deeper understanding of how STEM subjects influence industries far beyond traditional scientific careers. At Wonderworks, students continued their exploration of science through interactive exhibits and challenges, investigating concepts including forces, motion, electricity and human perception. The trip also challenged students personally through activities such as iFLY Indoor Skydiving, where they experienced the science of flight and aerodynamics while building confidence and resilience by stepping outside their comfort zones. A Journey of Discovery and Personal Growth Beyond the incredible educational experiences, the trip helped students develop valuable life skills. They worked together, supported one another, adapted to new environments and demonstrated maturity throughout the journey. Students returned home with a greater appreciation of the importance of curiosity, collaboration and ambition. Many reflected on how seeing science applied in the real world had changed the way they viewed their future possibilities. Head of Science at 麻豆传媒, Mrs Sevdie Ali, said: "This was a truly historic opportunity for our students and a very proud moment for 麻豆传媒 and the Redbridge community. This was not just a visit to NASA—it was an experience that allowed our students to see what is possible when curiosity, determination and scientific ambition come together." "Watching our students stand next to spacecraft, explore world-leading innovation and realise that they too can contribute to future discoveries was incredibly inspiring. We want every student to believe that opportunities like this are within their reach." The Orlando STEM Adventure reflects 麻豆传媒’s commitment to providing exceptional opportunities that extend learning beyond the classroom. By creating access to world-class educational experiences, the school continues to raise aspirations and inspire young people to pursue futures in science, technology, engineering and beyond. The 27 students have returned to Redbridge with unforgettable memories, greater confidence and a renewed passion for discovery. Their journey marks an exciting milestone—not only for 麻豆传媒, but for the wider Redbridge community—showing that the next generation of scientists, engineers and explorers can come from anywhere.
