Supportive learning environment
Sixth Form students benefit greatly from the individual attention and encouragement that staff offer to our students. We get to know all our students well, and quickly, allowing us to support them throughout their time in the Sixth Form and provide them with expert advice when making their university and careers choices.
Dress Code
Students are able to wear their own clothes to Sixth Form, in line with the Sixth Form dress code. Students should be dressed appropriately for the school environment, in keeping with the adults in the school. Students must always also wear their Sixth Form lanyard for safeguarding purposes. Please see our dress code guidance.
WiFi/Laptops
WiFi is available for Sixth Form students, as well as access to Sixth Form only laptops. The Focused Study Area is also equipped with a number of desktop computers to support student learning. Should students sooner bring in their own laptop, they are welcome to however this will be at the student's own risk.
Independent Study
Timetabled Focused Study lessons enable students to get academic support outside of normal contact periods. These sessions are important in helping to develop independent learning skills, as well as striking a healthy work-life balance.
free time
From the outset, Sixth Form students are given the privilege of leaving the school site during break and lunch. Following a settling in period, students will be able to make decisions about how they use their Study Periods. Providing students are managing with the demands of A Level learning and their attendance is excellent, they will be allowed to come in late or leave early depending on their timetable.
