Welcome to Chenderit School
Our community is a tight knit and friendly one, where students and staff support each other and we achieve and exceed our goals individually, and collectively. We are committed to a comprehensive ethos and we achieve excellent results because we are an inclusive community that values learning in its broadest sense. We tailor experiences within the Sixth Form to ensure that every student is able to succeed in whichever pathway they choose. Not only are our students pushed to exceed their potential in their studies, but they also participate and benefit from a huge variety of wider experiences and opportunities such as our immersive enrichment programme, fantastic advice and guidance, new friends and the support of a superb and incredibly dedicated pastoral team.Please look through these pages to get a flavour of all we have to offer within our Sixth Form. To get a fuller experience, please contact us and we will happily welcome you for a visit – there is far more to see here in person than these pages can show!
