Sixth Form

About our Sixth Form...

In this new and ever changing world we now find ourselves in, universities and employers are looking for more than just academic excellence.  At a time when many students leave school with good grades, what sets you apart from the crowd?

Here at The Elizabethan Sixth Form, we have a select number of courses where you can choose to study A Levels and BTEC/Vocational qualifications, or a mixture of the two if you prefer.  If you wish to specialise and learn alongside employers, then our T Level qualification could be for you.  We also offer the Extended Project Qualification (EPQ), should you wish to study this in Year 12 alongside your other qualifications.

Students sometimes feel the pressure of study at Key Stage 5, and as such, we have a dedicated pastoral team ready and willing to listen should you need that little bit of support.  In order to help you develop as an individual, we have specific personal development sessions where you get the chance to explore ideas, beliefs and current affairs in more depth.

The Elizabethan has a proud tradition of offering a wide range of extra-curricular activities to its students, and these continue into our Sixth Form.  Our enrichment programme is an important element of Sixth Form provision, enabling you to develop skills and knowledge that are both useful to you, and attractive to a future employer or university.  We are committed to offering a wide range of enrichment opportunities, including Duke of Edinburgh’s Award, Cadets, community service, visits to Universities/Apprenticeship Careers Fairs, access to world renowned external speakers, or, if you wish to have a voice in the direction of the Academy, part of our student leadership council!

The Elizabethan is also committed to offering top quality work experience placements and internships to all students in Year 12.  Experience shows that these often form the backbone of a successful university or apprenticeship application, and relevant work experience will open many doors to you.

This is an exciting time to join the Elizabethan Sixth Form as we continue on our journey to becoming the number one choice for students in the local area.  We are justly proud of our Sixth Form, and we recommend you get in touch if you wish to join us!
