BA Social Anthropology and Sociology

I chose Daventry Sixth Form due to its community feel. The teachers here are extremely helpful and support students on an individual basis, whether that be study-related or anything else. They want you to work hard but also care deeply about their students’ wellbeing, which is vital during A-Levels. Having a Sixth Form block separate from the rest of the academy creates community amongst students whilst also giving us independence. It is easy to make friends due to the social facilities and there is a positive environment within the building. There is also a great extracurricular programme including many trips to prepare for post-18 study, such as university trips, apprenticeship fairs, and educational workshops.”

I choose Daventry Sixth Form because of the welcoming feeling. I came to E-ACT Parker Academy for secondary school so coming to the Sixth Form was always my first choice. The teachers not only provide great education, but they provide a great sense of belonging and welcoming. The staff at Sixth Form also help with the transition and are always there if any help is needed. Daventry Sixth Form also offer great routes, options and opportunities to reach future goals with university trips and apprentice fairs. There is also a designated Sixth Form area which provides room to study, allowing for a focused working environment
