We are able to offer “the best of both worlds”. We have the support structures, expertise and ethos of a school combined with the flexibility, facilities and freedom of a larger institution.
Sixth Form means greater freedom and independence. This, combined with the choice of subjects and more mature relationships with teachers, makes for a hugely rewarding experience. It is a time for discovery, expression and growth and we seek to provide our young people with diverse opportunities for them to explore
their interests and individuality.
The Sixth Form years are a gateway
to life beyond school and towards university and the world of work – a time for individuals to equip themselves with vital life skills, balancing independence and responsibility alongside the need to prioritise effectively to meet deadlines and
other expectations.
Students are expected to work hard, think for themselves and take responsibility for their own learning. When not in lessons or undertaking independent study, students are able to relax and enjoy the company of their friends in a large dining area, where they have the opportunity to buy a snack, a hot drink or freshly-cooked meal. Sixth formers are also free to visit the many shops, cafes and
coffee outlets in the town, enjoying the freedom to leave the site when they choose.
“CRGS Sixth Form is an accepting environment for people of all genders, ethnicities and sexualities as well as a positive working environment.”
