Welcome to The Phoenix Collegiate

Do you want to choose the Sixth Form with arguably the best progress measures in Sandwell? Then choose Phoenix Collegiate. Choosing the right Sixth Form that offers you a wide range of courses, combined with high quality teaching and good student support is a daunting task… or is it? If you are hardworking, ambitious and determined to achieve your best, then Phoenix Sixth Form is for you. The range of courses we offer is already one of the most comprehensive in Sandwell and we constantly review the offer to enhance it further. Your decision about where to study Post-16 is not a decision to be taken lightly. That is why it’s important to reflect upon the range of courses on offer, the success rate of students and the support and guidance offered by the schools/colleges you are considering. Take time out to chat with our current Sixth Form students. They will tell you that the examination results at Phoenix are improving year on year, and our dedicated Post-16 pastoral support is second to none. Life in the Sixth Form is very different from anything you will have experienced to date. By choosing to study here those very important and essential relationships between you, other students and your teachers will already be established. So too will be the support networks that will provide you with a firm foundation upon which to build. Studying for A’ levels is hard work, and you have my personal guarantee that we will be with you every step of the way, to ensure you are successful. Don’t forget that Sixth Form students have their own specialist facilities and are eligible to apply for a very generous bursary which helps to meet the costs of Post-16 study. Speak to the Head of Sixth Form for more details. In all, we provide a package of facilities that will ensure that you can achieve truly outstanding results. sion.
