HE provider good practice briefing for students from UK Armed Forces Families (Service children)
This briefing is for staff working in universities and colleges and supports the introduction of the new UCAS flag to identify students from UK Armed Forces families, from 2023 entry. We have worked with the Service Children’s Progression (SCiP) Alliance and the Ministry of Defence to outline the common challenges for these students, share good practice around the UK, and provide considerations ahead of the new question.
Helping your child write a great personal statement
Your child may find writing their personal statement the most difficult part of the application process – they’re not alone.
Support for students who have been bereaved as a child
Many universities and colleges have initiatives or support programmes in place for students who have been bereaved as a child.
Supporting children from UK Armed Forces families (Service children)
If a student's parent(s) or carer(s) is serving as a Regular or Reservist in the UK Armed Forces, or has done so in the past, their experience of going to university may be different to their non-Service peers. We have worked with the Service Children’s Progression (SCiP) Alliance to explain how you can practically support Service children along their journey to higher education.
Supporting children with imprisoned parents
As there is no systematic way of identifying children of prisoners in the UK, it is likely that you may not know who is a child of a prisoner in your cohort of students.
Supporting your child with writing their personal statement for 2026 entry
Writing a personal statement is an important part of your child’s university application, and with the new format for 2026 entry, there’s a clear structure to follow. As a parent, guardian, or carer, your support can make a real difference. This page offers advice to help your child write a statement that reflects their experiences and goals, along with tips on what to avoid.
Advice for parents, guardians and carers
Everything you need to help your child decide on their next steps.
Alternatives to university
Going to uni or doing an apprenticeship isn’t right for everybody. When researching post-16 plans, it’s important your child weighs up all their options to make the right decision for them in the long-term.
Dependants' grants for full-time students
If you have children or an adult dependent, and you want to study a full-time undergraduate course or an Initial Teacher Training (ITT) programme, you may be able to get extra help. Content provided by Student Finance England.
Finding university accommodation
If your child has their heart set on university halls, they’ll need to do their research and apply early. Places aren’t always guaranteed, so it’s important to encourage them to think about alternative accommodation, which can be equally fun and provide a safe living environment.
