(Asking for Advice) Target to Non-Target

Hello all,

I'm currently enrolled as an undergraduate in a target school in the UK but I'll need to leave at the end of my 1st year back to my home country since I need to be close to my family due to health reasons. I'm expecting a first.

Do I have any chance when applying to London IB jobs in the future, considering I was in a target school and managed to get a first in my first year? Visa it's not a problem
