Welcome to Belper School Sixth Form

Our school motto is “Create your future. Be who you are, become who you aspire to be”, a set of values which underpins our approach. We believe in our students and want them to flourish in school and beyond.

Our Sixth Form aims to offer a very high quality all-round education so that our students acquire the knowledge, skills and attitudes they need to create happy and successful futures for themselves.

Being a Sixth Form student is very different from year 11 and has many new opportunities and freedoms to develop your independence and maturity. We see the mission of Sixth Form education as preparing you fully for early adulthood whether that be in university, apprenticeships, employment or further education.

The Belper Sixth Form is open to students from across Derbyshire and there are courses suited to the needs of most students wishing to embark on Level 3 courses. We offer an environment of mutual trust and respect with a personal tutor who will support you through your studies, and teachers who are keen to help you excel in your education.

We are very proud of the many recent developments in Post-16 education at the school and in the examination successes of our Sixth Form students. There has been significant investment in the education we offer and many students have gone on to achieve exceptional results, securing excellent future prospects for themselves.

We look forward to welcoming you!
