Welcome to Liverpool College

Liverpool College Sixth Form is a happy and caring environment. The Sixth Form should be a fruitful time in the personal and intellectual development of every student. Our aim is to provide our students with a purposeful and challenging experience which strengthens their capacities and interests, develops their character, and gives them the confidence to take the next step on their academic and life journey.

Through the curriculum, our Sixth Formers engage in rigorous academic study, whilst developing key character traits and skills of independence, resilience, leadership and responsibility.

As well as A Level and BTEC studies, all students undertake an Extended Project Qualification which can lead to lower university entry requirements.

There are around 130 - 140 students in each year group and we typically welcome between 40 and 50 students from other schools.

The average class size is 16 and students are taught by experienced subject leaders. Our programme of Sixth Form House Mentors provide strong pastoral support and create a community with purpose and ambition for each student.

The Sixth Form is housed in a dedicated Sixth Form building called Godwyn House which is a refurbished Victorian villa on our campus. The Sixth Form is further strengthened by our boarding programme which brings a diverse and highly motivated group of young people to the Sixth Form.
