The Holy Cross School

While the teaching and pastoral care at The Holy Cross Sixth Form are exceptional, what sets it apart is its strong sense of community. I have formed lifelong friendships and created lasting memories. Moreover, I received invaluable support from my teachers, who dedicated their time to help me achieve my desired grades, and to guide me through crucial decisions about my future. They encouraged me to explore leadership roles, refine my study techniques, and helped me to develop my confidence. Thanks to this nurturing environment, I am now studying Chemical Engineering at a top Russell Group university. I will always be grateful for the solid foundation the sixth form has provided me for both my academic and personal journey.

The Holy Cross Sixth Form is a supportive and encouraging environment which has provided me with the confidence to excel in my career. As a new student in Year 12, Holy Cross provided me many opportunities such as being part of the Head Girl Team and a vast choice of subjects to study. This allowed me to flourish in all areas of my studies including in undertaking the Extended Project Qualification. All of the teachers are highly supportive and I am so grateful that I was within a great learning environment which encouraged me to do well. Without the support of the careers team, I would not be where I am today undertaking a highly competitive degree apprenticeship within accounting. Overall, I would highly recommend enrolling at Holy Cross for a great Sixth Form experience.

Having come from Richard Challoner, joining The Holy Cross Sixth Form was effortless; the staff and students were incredibly welcoming and friendly. The friends I made inside and outside the classroom were amazing and gave me many great memories. A-Levels are inevitably challenging, but I am exceedingly grateful for the support and guidance provided by the community. Not only is the teaching quality superb, but the passion and dedication teachers have for the students is invaluable; I received so much great advice as I progressed through the university application process. I went on to complete my Mathematics, Statistics, and Data Science degree at the University of Bath. I loved studying Physics at The Holy Cross Sixth Form, and overall, I couldn’t have imagined going anywhere else!
