Bexley is no longer producing the ‘Decisions’ Bexley’s Post-16 Directory. All Year 11 students at schools in Bexley can now research their options for post-16 education and training using an online directory called UCAS Progress (https://www.ucas.com/ucas/after-gcses).

UCAS Progress will have details of all the post-16 courses - including ‘A’ levels, BTECs, apprenticeships and traineeships - offered by schools, colleges and commercial training providers.

The benefits of UCAS Progress for Year 11 students include:

Registration on UCAS Progress and creation of account

Students in Year 11 can create an account on UCAS Progress in one of two ways:

Option 1: Via their school, if the school has opted to create accounts on behalf of studentsOption 2: Via self-registration on the website

By creating an account on the website, students will be able to save information about any options they are interested in, create a personal profile and make applications to schools, colleges and other post-16 providers who accept online applications via the system.

Online applications

Many providers now accept online applications. Please check on the UCAS Progress website which method of application the individual provider prefers.
