Beyond CLC

Professional Guidance

Our Professional Guidance Centre (PGC) runs comprehensive programmes to support girls applying for higher education, both in the UK and abroad, including specialist provision for US and Oxbridge applications. Higher education and careers events include careers and admissions talks, mock interviews, conferences, networking dinners, and CV writing workshops.

Supported by the PGC, over the last 10 years more than 1,400 students have graduated from CLC Sixth Form and have gone on to study at over 170 universities across the world.
