Welcome to The Matt King Sixth Form at Stratton School

At The Matt King Sixth Form, we are proud to offer a vibrant, ambitious, and supportive environment where achievement, aspiration, and excellence are at the core of everything we do.

Our Sixth Form has been shaped by the dedication of both students and staff over time. It is a place where hard work is valued, success is celebrated, and every individual is encouraged to contribute positively to our community. Our students consistently achieve results above the national average across A Level, Academic, and Applied General pathways—reflecting the strong partnerships between students, staff, and families.

We recognise the Sixth Form years as a pivotal stage in a young person’s life. It is both a privilege and a responsibility to guide our students through this journey. We set high expectations and encourage our learners to strive for personal and academic excellence, helping them grow into confident, capable, and well-rounded young adults.

We understand that transitioning into Sixth Form can be challenging. That’s why we provide tailored support to help students meet the demands of advanced study. From the outset, we help them develop effective learning habits, time management skills, and the ability to balance academic work with purposeful downtime—essential ingredients for long-term success.

Our students are challenged, supported, and celebrated as they grow into independent learners, ready to take their next steps—whether that’s university, a higher-level apprenticeship, or employment. We work closely with each student to ensure they choose the right course combinations that align with their goals and passions. As a result, over 95% of our students have recently secured places at their first-choice universities.

From day one, we closely monitor progress and provide ongoing support. With a strong focus on attendance, organisation, and motivation, we ensure that every student is equipped to thrive.
