A detailed PP which goes through UCAS process for Year 12/13 students

I ran this session with a year 12/13 group who were writing their personal statements. It goes through the steps to writing a great personal statement and helps students to avoid any cliches. This was a great resource and took a couple of hours. There is a lengthy PowerPoint which goes through a step-by-step guide to the personal statement and a couple of worksheets for students so they can do research on their chosen subjects/universities.

A handy UCAS Booklet for Teachers and Students. Many tasks for students to complete and can be done on UCAS days or over summer. Covers everything from: What am I doing currently? - This part gets the student to write down what they are subjects they are studying, current target/track grades and expected End of Year grade. Explains what the options are after 6th form - Using web links from UCAS and a place for students to research what Apprenticeships, Gap Year, Uni, Employment, Internships are and the pros and cons of each. This will ensure students are aware of what each option is and a handy checkbox task for students to see what they would consider. Career Choices - What careers students may be interested in after 6th form and hand links to see what career type they may fall into. Take it further websites for more info on careers and finding the perfect career related to the subjects they study. University Choices and Points Calculation - Allow students to work out how many points they have for each subject and how this works. Different Degree Choices - Allow students to find degrees from the links provided University Quiz - Rank tables and links regarding the tables. Extra links on how to find the correct university for you. Space provided for students to research different universities, courses, entry requirements etc. This will help students refer back to when they apply through UCAS. How to write a personal statement - Planning structure, questions with spaces to write under, a log of extra activities and loads more to support students with this. Many links are provided to assist students with each step. Each part it broken down so students can fill this in electronically or it can be printed. Ideal for those wanting to set work for the summer as this can be done individually.

Lots of energetic references for all types of students. This could save you a lot of time. Black/Green = Excellent student Orange = Average ability Red = Positive reference for struggling students Note: I have uploaded a better version, the gender pronouns are underlined so it is easier to edit the statements

Ideal for sixth form or mature students: this model personal statement (with accompanying commentary) is a sure-fire method of helping with an application to go to University. It is structured with sections, annotations and is easily transferable to applying to a degree course of any subject. Could be used as part of a careers, citizenship or PSHE lesson or as a teaching tool to help structure university applications in colleges and other education providers. It can also be an incredibly useful item to support any individual who is planning to apply to university by themselves.
