Sixth Form
Sixth Form provides all students with a working environment in which they can achieve their very best, both in terms of academic achievement and personal development.
We develop and celebrate students of all abilities in an atmosphere of mutual respect and understanding. We prepare them to face the world as responsible, self-motivated, independent and caring citizens; young women who can con dently take their place in whatever role they choose.
Post-16 education is an important stage in instilling an expectation of life-long learning. Sixth Form encourages a love of learning for its own sake as well as for measurable academic achievement.
Girls are encouraged to contribute to their immediate community and to play a wider role in society. We place great emphasis
on leading whole-school charitable initiatives and our students typically take on a variety of volunteering activities.
Students are expected to extend learning beyond the classroom and we have forums, including the Hepworth Lectures, to enable them to demonstrate this.
