Welcome to Hinchingbrooke School
Thank you for your interest in our Sixth Form.
We are proud of our students and our large, diverse Sixth Form community. Our students are drawn from a wide geographical area across Huntingdon, St Ives, St Neots and from the A1 corridor. Numbers are growing and this can be attributed to a number of factors including,
-Teaching from subject specialists and A-level examiners;
-A Head of Year, Student Support Officer and Tutor who are there to support students' well-being and progress throughout their Sixth Form journey
-SEND support via a post-16 SEND specialist team
-A wide range of sources of financial support for our students, including the 16-19 Bursary Fund, the Hinchingbrooke Foundation and the Huntingdon Freemans Trust
-Dedicated Oxbridge, UCAS and employability co-ordinators
-Well-resourced study spaces which are supervised during the school day and after school
- A vast range of extracurricular, enrichment, leadership and volunteering opportunities
-First-class sports, performing arts and IT facilities
-A Grade 1 listed building as our base
Our students do very well with us. In 2023 and 2024, our Level 3 (A level and BTECs) outcomes put us in the top 25% of all Sixth Forms in terms of student progress. 75% of our leavers in 2024 went to university; 31% of whom started at a Russell Group institution. We also had a strong number of leavers who started an apprenticeship following guidance from our Sixth Form CAIEG team.
Our Open Evening for entry 2025 was at the end of September 2024; however if you were unable to come and would like a tour, please get in touch at sixthform@hbk.acesmat.uk
We look forward to seeing you soon!
