Support
Through the Career Channel, seniors access video interviews with professionals across more than 50 fields—from architecture and technology to medicine—available both on campus and at home. This connects with Nightingale lectures, where entrepreneurs and researchers share their insights, while Year 12 students develop business skills through the MBA Experience programme alongside companies like IBM and BDO LLP. Meanwhile, the Duke of Edinburgh scheme builds self-discipline through activities that include charity projects in Costa Rica and India.
University Preparation at Embley School
High academic standards encourage students to take ownership of their university choices, supported by a mentoring team whose guidance has helped many graduates reach Russell Group institutions. Those aiming for Oxford or Cambridge receive specialized support through the Oxbridge Programme, where consultations and interview preparation help develop the skills that matter most when applying to these universities.
Career Development Programme
Year 12’s autumn term marks a crucial period, as students explore university courses with mentor support while connecting with the University of Exeter. Spring brings them into UCAS applications and campus visits, followed by summer workshops on personal statements and university exhibitions. By Year 13, attention shifts toward application refinement and interview preparation.
