Welcome to St Andrew's Catholic School
Our aim is simple: to be the best Sixth Form in England, and to ensure that you receive the very best support in order to fulfil your true potential.We offer an ambitious curriculum where students not only have the opportunity to study a range of courses but also have the opportunity through our enrichment programme to develop a holistic character education which will prepare them for the rigour and challenges of life as they leave St Andrew's.It is important to us that you leave St Andrew’s not only with the very best exam results, but also with the moral, spiritual and social skills you need to take your place in an ever changing world.Your choice of where to study for the next two years is probably the most important decision you have made in your life so far. Studying for your A-Levels will define your future: at St Andrew’s we are passionate about providing you with the best education possible, guiding you to becoming successful and independent learners. I can assure you we will work tirelessly to ensure you are fully prepared for the next stage of your lives, be that at university or in the workplace.I hope this website will give you a taste of what St Andrew’s Sixth Form life is all about, but the best way to fully appreciate all that we can offer is to come for a visit and see us in action. I look forward to meeting you. Mrs Clare UttleyDeputy Headteacher - Director of Learning Post 16
