The Canterbury Academy

The Sixth Form at The Canterbury Academy has over 800 students and is one of the largest in the county. Year 12 students transition from year 11 at The Canterbury Academy and from a wide selection of schools around Kent. Students here will benefit from specialist teachers, a dedicated team of Sixth Form staff and specialist facilities for Sixth Form students.Students belong to one of our four colleges; Academic, Vocational, Sport or Performing Arts and can study a wide range of courses in combination, such as BTEC and A Levels together. We can be flexible and create bespoke timetables for our students, which allows students a lot more choice and variety in their study. Students can also join one of our elite academies in Sport, Performing Arts or Practical Learning and Enterprise Education.The Canterbury Academy Sixth Form offers a stimulating, vibrant and challenging environment to study. The staff are supportive, the students are friendly and the facilities are excellent.Post 16 education is a personal journey; we believe it is important to recognise that every student follows their own individual path to reach their particular goal. The Canterbury Academy knows that employers are looking to recruit people who have initiative and drive and an ability to think creatively and analytically. For students looking to progress to university, these are also the skills and attributes that will attract the attention of admission officers.Sixth Form students have more freedom and independence, to develop and manage themselves as young adults. Teachers will develop working relationships with them, with the expectation to work independently completing coursework and research in their own time.
