Bosworth introduced the CATS University Foundation Programme (UFP) in September 2024 to provide another route to UK university study for talented international students. Our first set of results demonstrate the success of this venture and are a testament to the hard work of our students and teachers.

The CATS UFP was designed to prepare international students for undergraduate study in the UK. Recognising the unique features of a British education, the course intends to equip students with the knowledge and skills necessary to thrive at a British university. By developing research skills, essay writing technique and presentation experience, UFP students are well prepared for rigorous and varied assessments used by UK universities. Additionally, students quickly improve their academic and conversational English, ready for both studying and socialising at a top UK university.

“Teachers provide extra work in classes and always reexplain topics I don’t understand.”

Studied Biology, Chemistry and Psychology as part of her UFP course at Bosworth Independent School. She achieved A*, A*, A grades. She has offers from University of Bristol, University of Exeter, University of Nottingham and Queen Mary University of London. She has chosen to study Neuroscience at the University of Bristol.

“I chose to do UFP in the UK because I believe a few years of experiencing schooling in the UK would prepare me for life outside Lagos. A life where I can be independent and make mistakes in the real world.”

Studied Physics, Economics and Mathematics as part of her UFP course at Bosworth Independent School. She achieved A, A, B grades. She has offers from University of Kent and University of Strathclyde. She has chosen to study Computer and Electronic Systems at the University of Strathclyde.

“I would recommend UFP. I think it is a good course for international students because you get a lot of support in terms of English language. The exams are written differently than A Level; each question is written for second language speakers to understand.”
