We are Harrow, Richmond, and Uxbridge Colleges (HRUC)

Supporting your student with their next steps

We encourage all our students to think about making progress towards the personal study ambitions and career goals.

During Big Progression Week - 2 March 2026 - we offer students a dedicated opportunity to focus on their future and plan their next steps with confidence.

Throughout the week, students will explore pathways including higher-level courses, apprenticeships, university, and employment.

With the support of our staff, they’ll take part in activities and discussions designed to build confidence, broaden ambitions, and help them make informed decisions about what comes next.

Parents and guardians can support this journey by encouraging conversations about goals and future plans.
