Welcome to The New Sixth

The New Sixth combines exceptional teaching and learning with outstanding pastoral care. This approach enables students to thrive in a supportive, caring atmosphere that ensures everyone can acquire the academic success, confidence and skills they need to continue their educational journey of choice.

Stuart st gregsOur sixth form is open to all aspiring A Level candidates. Our guiding mission is to provide our students with exciting sixth form experiences that promote academic excellence and spiritual guidance, ensuring Christian Values are at the centre of all that we do. The New Sixth combines exceptional teaching and learning with outstanding pastoral care, enabling students to thrive in an atmosphere that ensures everyone acquires the academic success, confidence and skills they need to continue their educational journey of choice.

At a time when life is uncertain and demands are high, we want to provide a safe, inclusive environment where students feel valued as they are and are inspired to extend, challenge and equip themselves to achieve new goals and to dream big dreams.

When a student joins us in Year 12, they embark on a journey with us that will last for two years and, from their very first day, we instil in them a desire and ambition to strive for the highest standards, to continue to develop a life-long love of learning and to achieve their own personal best.

During this time, our sixth form students will mature and develop into ambitious, adventurous and motivated young people, determined to make their mark on the world.

Our A Level results are excellent and not just in raw terms but also in the context of what we call ‘value-added’. Such measures seek to identify the progress that every student makes during their time with us, and show that our students make outstanding progress.

You are very welcome to visit our sixth form and to see all that it has to offer.
