Our students go on to a wide range of exciting futures, from university degrees and higher apprenticeships to employment in professional industries. Each year, many secure places at leading universities to study subjects including Medicine, Law, Engineering, Business, and the Creative Arts. Others choose high-level apprenticeships or direct entry into the workplace, building successful careers in areas such as IT, finance, education, and healthcare.

At St Ivo, we are proud of our students’ achievements – whether it’s excellent exam results, progression to top destinations, or success in vocational pathways – and we are committed to supporting every individual in their next steps.
