Gabriel

September 2021

Sixth Form at LRGS was such an important experience as it taught me about independence. The opportunity to choose between university courses and subjects and the chance to lead extra-curricular programmes proved important for learning about acting independently and the responsibility that comes with it. Ultimately I felt that everyone was allowed to make their own decisions and enjoy school at their own pace.

"The thing I enjoyed most about the LRGS Sixth Form was being challenged academically and learning in such a supportive environment. I benefitted most from dialogue, discussion and debate in lessons – there was no hiding at the back of the class."
