University Foundation Programme
The University Foundation Programme (UFP) offered by Bath Academy
is a fast-track pre-university alternative to the A-Level route.
Students spend three academic terms on the David Game University
Foundation Programme. Successful students are eligible for a place
at most British universities. More than 90% of Bath Academy students
go on to universities after their course. The UFP course is run
by Bath Academy in conjunction with the David Game College in London.
Assessment is based upon coursework and end-of-term examinations,
all of which are externally examined by university lecturers from Brunel, City, Royal Holloway and the London School of Pharmacy. Students regularly obtain places on degree courses
at universities throughout Britain.
