Why is our sixth form the right pathway before university abroad?

Why is our sixth form the right pathway before university abroad? Most of our students have ambitions for moving abroad following sixth form to study at university. Every year these graduates follow in the footsteps of our alumni who have attended some of the world’s best universities and whose success stories are inspiring proof of the exciting pathways which await them. We have prepared thousands of past students for the transition from school to university, and have long perfected the recipe for ensuring them the best future international pathway. So, what’s the key to setting them up for success?

Internationally recognised qualifications

In Sixth Form, we teach our students the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IBDP) at our Madinat Khalifa campus, as well as A-Levels at our Themaid Campus. We offer the IBDP and A-Levels for their worldwide prestige and the international pathways they open up for our students. Popular university destinations, like the UK for example, will notice the IBDP and A-Levels in university applications and recognise them as particularly competitive qualifications. 

 

Nord Anglia global connections

The right qualification and a stand-out university application is one important element on the journey to university, but equally as important is our role in educating students about where they could study and what it will be like. Our aim for every student is for them to leave our school with well-placed expectations and their questions around their university destination answered. The global Nord Anglia family they are part of is crucial to this.

 

Being involved in our global community of schools gives students the opportunity to access local support in the country of their university of choice. Our students have attended universities around the world, including top universities in the US and UK. In these countries and in a further 28, we have staff and alumni who work there and have attended university there. This wealth of knowledge is a valuable resource for students. Elsewhere, a student's best understanding of their future university abroad may be its website. At Compass International School we can connect students with experienced individuals who can bring the university destination to life.
