Welcome

Our thriving, world-class sixth form provides a transformative experience for up to 150 girls in their final two years of school life.

We provide every student with the opportunities and the support to help them achieve widely, and in doing so, build confidence and resilience, while developing the skills needed to thrive beyond school. 

We believe in the value of a complete, holistic education, as encapsulated in our 6 Pillars of Sixth Form framework. We pride ourselves on the vast array of opportunities we offer, allowing every student to find their passion and pursue it wholeheartedly. Our aspiring engineers spend hours tinkering with their “Green Power” go-kart while racing it at weekends, our aspiring diplomats debate the merits of resolutions at Model United Nations conferences, our artists put on immersive exhibitions and our sports teams compete at the very highest level with an impressive collection of silverware.

What binds all our students is a profound sense of shared endeavour; collectively striving to achieve and supporting each other every step of the way. It is this mutual support with a shared purpose that creates a profound sense of belonging in the sixth form and makes us proudly inclusive in every sense.  

 

We are proud of our academic reputation, and the outcomes achieved by our students in the past three years with 77% leaving for Russell Group universities, 10% to Oxbridge and a similar number to medical and veterinary school. We are certain that whatever a student’s passions might be, we will help them to develop their character, skills, and self-confidence, so they can pursue their chosen pathway with curiosity, and a life-long love of learning.  

As a world-class sixth form, the are several aspects of our provision set us apart, as outlined in our 6 Pillars of Sixth Form.
