As part of their introduction to SBUSixth, over 200 students kicked off their first week with an engaging and insightful visit to London South Bank University (LSBU). This visit offered students a glimpse into higher education and the various pathways available to them.
The day was filled with activities designed to give students a taste of university life and the opportunities awaiting them. After registration at the LSBU Hub, students attended welcome talks covering key academic pathways, including Health, Business, and Engineering. These sessions provided valuable information on the courses available, offering a clear sense of direction for students considering their next steps after SBUSixth.
A highlight of the day was a campus tour, with a particular focus on LSBU’s impressive Engineering facilities. Students in the Engineering pathway were treated to an in-depth look at the cutting-edge labs and equipment that LSBU has to offer, sparking excitement about potential future studies in the field.
The visit is part of SBUSixth’s broader commitment to ensuring that students are well-informed about their higher education options. By giving them a firsthand experience of university life, SBUSixth aims to empower students to make confident decisions about their future educational journeys.
With the day drawing to a close, students completed evaluation forms, offering feedback on their experiences and sharing their thoughts on the pathways they explored.
The visit to LSBU is just one example of how SBUSixth supports students on their educational pathways, helping them navigate the transition from sixth form to higher education with confidence. This collaboration with LSBU highlights the benefits of being part of a larger educational group, ensuring students have access to a wealth of resources and expertise from the very start of their academic journey.
