Parents & Care Givers

The support and guidance that parents can give their young person is key to their successful post-sixth form career. We endeavour to provide information and resources to help this process.

We value feedback from our parents and care givers as this helps adapt our programme to better aid students in their choices.

All of the students at Sir Isaac Newton Sixth Form use a platform called Unifrog. Unifrog supports students when going through the application process to various Universities and courses and aims to help them find the very best opportunities.

Please click HERE for the Parent letter and further information regarding Unifrog - The Complete Destinations Platform. 

Parents and caregivers, you may also like to be involved in the choices your young person is making. Information about the UCAS university application process, alternatives to university and routes to different careers can be found in this section.

Perhaps you have something to offer our careers programme? We have found that some of our most inspiring contributors have been friends and relatives of the school. If you would like to speak to a group of students about routes into your chosen career or offer a visit Please get in touch.

Success at School are delighted to announce that our brand new 2022/23 Parents guides to university and apprenticeships will be released digitally on the week commencing 12th September. Both guides will be available for parents and carers to access for FREE and will be sent directly to your inbox along with a free bonus STEM careers guide.
