CAREERS

All staff at Accord Sixth provided me with incredible support, especially with my personal statement, which is something I really struggled with.

Unifrog has enabled me to research a wide variety of University courses, allowing me to make a well informed decision on my future. With the help of Unifrog I am now studying English Literature at York Univeristy

There really is a sense of ‘family’ here. You get the support, the freedom and the opportunities... You're not just a number.

A Levels are so different from GCSEs; it's such a massive step up! The teachers here understand the pressures of making that jump and give you the backing you need to adjust.
