Sixth Form success through adversity
After the first Covid-19 national lockdown students across the nation were awarded their centre assessed grades and were not required to sit summer external examinations.
Despite the disruption to their education in Year 13, 87% of our students are now studying for a degree at university, with 8% embarking on exciting apprenticeships, further education or work and the remaining 5% taking a gap year.

Mohamed Omar: “You have to be willing to improve, listen to what went wrong and practice in these areas so that you can improve your weak points in a subject. Have the willingness to improve even if things look like they aren’t turning out well.
