Campaign Encourages Students to Build Up Life Skills
A campaign was launched to encourage students acquiring their GCSE grades to start developing their talents and gather experiences in order for them to have the edge in university and employment applications in the future. York St. John University’ Standout’s goal is to persuade 16-year-old students to start thinking about how they are going to improve their personal statements and their CVs.
They warned that universities might pay no attention to applicants that were unsuccessful in expressing their passion and organizational skills, even if they are young and talented. York St. John has made a support material package that may facilitate the construction of the students Ucas (Universities and Colleges Admission Service) application forms.
