Welcome Message

Sixth Form life at Arthur Mellows is more than just the subjects students study – the College provides students with a diverse range of opportunities, both academic and extra-curricular.  Our curriculum is driven by our students and we continually endeavour to introduce courses that not only meet their needs but equip them to be highly competitive when leaving the College.  We have a thorough induction process that ensures the smooth transition for current students and those being welcomed from other schools and colleges.  We recognise the differing nature of students, the importance of a variety of learning styles and the opportunity for individual support and guidance.

The College has high expectations of our Sixth Form and in return students will receive exceptional outcomes.  A positive attitude, self motivation and the ability to be an active learner will lead to outstanding exam results and future opportunities.  Attendance, meeting deadlines and good study habits will ensure excellent learning experiences.  We expect students to be role models that younger students look up to – creating an environment of aspirational and confident students.

Enrichment Activities

Show all activities
All students have an enrichment option within their timetable. This enables students to gain specialist skills beyond their subjects in areas they are passionate about. We have a Leadership Programme for all Year 12 students whereby students gain valuable work experience voluntarily to both contribute to their community and develop skills. Our Year 13 students take part in the Buddy Programme mentoring Year 7 students during their transition to secondary school life. At Arthur Mellows, we pride ourselves in being the most prolific local school in the Duke of Edinburgh Awards. The Arts department provide fantastic opportunities for Sixth Form students and our whole school productions and music performances are always a resounding success, fully equipped with professional lighting and sound.

Social Events

There are regular social events run by the Sixth Form Committee. One of the highlights of the year is undoubtedly the Sixth Form Prom, providing students and staff with an opportunity to relax and celebrate their achievements. We also arrange days out for Sixth Form students

Sixth Form Committee

The Sixth Form Committee is led by our Sixth Form Student Leadership Team; Head Boy, Head Girl, Deputies and Assistants. Our team is then made up of many committees who lead on areas and initiatives they are most passionate about. This includes Social, Charity, Politics, Diversity and Culture to name some. Sixth Form students are also important members of the Student Council where issues raised, by either students or staff, are addressed. The committee plays an important role in maintaining the Sixth Form’s designated environment within school.

Professional Development

Students have Professional Development sessions within their timetable which educate them on a range of things including safe driving, post Sixth Form options, and physical and mental health.

Trips, Visits and Visitors

Throughout the Sixth Form there are a number of trips arranged for Sixth Form students, previously these have included New York, Iceland and Austria. Some of the trips are subject specific but others are open to ‘non specialists’. We also run a Sixth Form ski trip. In addition, we bring a wide range of visitors into school to talk and work with our students. Our visitors support with a range of specialist information including awareness of employment and / or apprenticeship opportunities, and health advice.

Sport

A range of indoor and outdoor sports are available through extra-curricular clubs. There is an interschool fixture list in a variety of sports in which Arthur Mellows holds a high level of success. We hold a Sixth Form Team Building Day, along with regular sporting events against other Year Groups and staff teams. We have a state of the art fitness suite that students can access. Our Sixth Form students are also given the opportunity to study for the Higher Sports Leader Award as their enrichment option which enables students to develop leadership skills within a sporting context as they support the provision offered by the College to local primary schools
