We look forward to welcoming you as a Sixth form student at KESH Academy. You will be joining a very successful and aspirational Sixth Form that is student centred and strives for continuous excellence.

Here at KESH we are proud to provide a personalised approach for our students. Every student matters, we care for the individual and work hard to ensure high quality support for them. Our new building and state of the art Sixth Form facilities provide a fantastic resource for our students. We offer a wide range of courses from A levels to vocational BTEC courses alongside a vast array of extra-curricular activities.

Students at KESH Sixth Form achieve excellent outcomes and perform in line with national averages. At the end of year 13 many students choose to continue their education at university, some students move on to apprenticeships, all secure appropriate training, further education or employment. Choosing the level 3 courses you would like to study and where you would like to study them is one of the most important decisions you will have to make. We hope that the information you will find on our website will provide you with the understanding you need to make an informed choice. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact us.
