ANTHONY GELL SCHOOL SIXTH FORM ROSPECTUS 2020 — 2022

ANTHONY GELL SCHOOL’S One-Year Pathways are Level 2 vocational
qualifications for students aged 16+. The One Year Pathway will provide
our students with an opportunity to bridge the gap to further study, an
apprenticeship or employment. The qualifications offered have workplace
in mind and provide an opportunity for students to access high-quality
courses in a place they know well.

THE ONE YEAR PATHWAY provides an element of choice and at the end of
the year of study, students will receive accreditation in at least two
qualifications. Students will also complete a period of regular work
experience across the year, attending AGS Monday to Thursday with
Friday being set aside for the work experience placement. We have a good
reputation for finding high quality student placements including:
Specsavers, Willington Castle and Little Gems Nursery amongst others.
ALL COURSES OFFER a mixture of centre-assessed units with wider,
project-based practical assessment opportunities, as well as examined
units.

ONE YEAR PATHWAYS also provide the chance for students to resit GCSE
English or maths (if grades achieved in English (both English Literature and
Language) or maths are below a Grade 4).
