Right now. Get the reference done and ready for when you apply to University. Are you planning on going via clearing? Or are you not applying this year?

well I'm only in year 12 at the moment. I will be going into year 13 in september, which is around the time I will be applying for uni.

I just dont know what to do because he said he would write me one and send it to me so why did he just send me his new email??

Because that’s all you need.

When you apply through ucas apply as an individual (not through a centre/school using a buzzword). The reference section will ask for contact details for your reference. Fill it in if you can - if you need more details then email your teacher and ask them for all the required contact details. Ucas then email your teacher for them to add your reference

No problem

Your reference has to be added before you can submit it to ucas so make sure you give your referee plenty of time to write and add the reference before the deadline.
