We are proud to be part of the LaSWAP Sixth Form consortium alongside William Ellis, Parliament Hill and La Sainte Union Schools. LaSWAP offers an exceptional choice of courses in a supportive environment; the personal touches of a small Sixth Form alongside the benefits of a large college campus.

Higher Education & Pathways Advice and Guidance in the Sixth Form
We are incredibly proud of our extensive pathways guidance in the sixth form. There are various events during Y12 and Y13, alongside targeted Personal Development sessions and individual guidance, to help prepare students for making informed and realistic Higher Education and post-18 decisions. Over 75% of Acland Burghley students go on to university – a figure we are very proud of – and others go on to impressive apprenticeships, FE courses and more.
We invite a huge range of academics, employers and apprenticeship providers to LaSWAP each June for Futures Day. We have hosted workshops from marketing agencies, Project Managers, Camden apprentices, the NHS, the Civil Service, universities and more. This complements a visit to the annual UCAS Discovery convention at the ExCel in March, where students can talk to universities from all over the UK and beyond about what they offer. We have also taken students to other FE and HE exhibitions, include UCAS Create Your Future and the UK University Search Apprenticeship and HE fair.
LaSWAP also runs a programme of university visits. Across the consortium, we have visited Cambridge, King's, LMA, Sussex, Hertfordshire and more for events and open days, as well as welcoming representatives from institutions such as UEA, City and BIMM. We also have dedicated groups for aspirational university applicants and run a programme for our medics and dentists with input from Imperial, City St George’s and local dental surgeries.
Laura Pearcey is our Pathways and Progress Leader dedicated to pathways and progression. She has a huge amount of experience in post-18 guidance and is currently a member of the UCAS Advisers Advisory Board alongside working with businesses, other schools and colleges, and the Evening Standard on work experience opportunities, visits, education expos and more. Please email her on lpearcey@aclandburghley.camden.sch.uk with any queries.
