Sixth Form News
Get In!! Our Sixth Form team score their 3rd goal against Kings!!
Sixth Form continues to become integral to the life of the Academy, after moving from Queensway in the summer.
Our results were excellent and we wish our leavers who have started university and apprenticeships all the very best.
We have 71 students in the new Y12, giving the sixth form total numbers of 113. Our medium term aim is to have 250 sixth formers in new, purpose build facilities.
Our Open Evening for Sixth Form entry in September 2015, is Thursday 27th November at 6:30pm. A letter will be sent out inviting all Y11 students and their parents to attend. This will be a competitive process, with places for around 70 students.
Last half term was a busy and extremely productive one. Amongst the many highlights were hustings and elections for Y12 House Leaders, sporting success for our football and rugby teams, (including an amazing 5-5 draw against Kings,) the roll out of mentoring schemes where sixth formers work with Y7 and Y8 students to boost their literacy/numeracy and social skills; and enriching photography and art trips.
Our sixth form is a vibrant place to be and I look forward to meeting parents at the end of the month.
