They are encouraged to read and study beyond subject specifications. We ensure all students are well prepared for university, further education and the world of work by providing careers and UCAS advice, interview practice, mentoring and academic tutoring. Students benefit from a newly renovated Sixth Form Study Centre including co-working and silent study spaces, and a Sixth Form cafe.Our Sixth Form students are given opportunities to become student leaders and volunteer to take on responsibilities, develop key skills, and become well-rounded individuals. Sixth Formers are great role models at Queens' and make a positive and active contribution to our community as captains, prefects and student volunteers.
