Student Life
The Sixth Form is open from 8am until late. Students are welcome to use the building to study during this time. First lesson begins at 9am. Each day has six teaching sessions. The length of each teaching session is 50 minutes.
Study periods will appear in all student timetables. Students are expected to use this time effectively, in the learning resource centre which is a quiet study area, or the common room catching up on reading and taking advantage of our WI-FI connection. Students are not permitted to leave the school during study periods.
The Sixth Form boasts a brand new 'Coffee Bar' where you can purchase fresh coffee, snacks, sandwiches, salads and paninis. Students are also welcome to use the main

Induction
At the start of your first year an induction week is organised for all year 12's. The Director of Sixth Form will personally welcome every student and discuss the high standards and expectations of the Sixth Form. There are usually ice-breaker sessions, topical debates and a team building experience which usually involves getting wet at some point!
The intention of the induction process is to set our expectations from day one and to enable the students to get to know their surroundings, one another and their tutors. |
