Our students regularly progress to top universities in the UK and overseas, as well as sought-after higher-level apprenticeships.

You’ll learn in small classes taught by experienced subject specialists who know you as an individual and help you achieve your full potential. Our modern Hub building offers dedicated Sixth Form study spaces, collaborative learning areas and a vibrant social environment.

Support to Succeed

Success starts with feeling known, supported and valued.

Our dedicated pastoral and academic teams work closely with every student, providing personalised guidance throughout Sixth Form. From study skills and academic mentoring to university applications, apprenticeships and career planning, we are here to help you make informed choices about your future.

Lead, Contribute, Make a Difference

Sixth Form is about more than academic success.

Students take on leadership roles across the school community, from Subject Ambassadors and committee membership to mentoring younger pupils and leading charitable initiatives. Opportunities such as the Sixth Form Committee, community projects and international fundraising help students develop confidence, responsibility and a strong sense of purpose.

In Upper Sixth, students can apply to become Prefects or Head Students, playing a key role in shaping school life and acting as role models for younger pupils.
