Kinver High School and Sixth Form

​​

​​Kinver Sixth is a well-established Sixth Form with a long history of academic success, consistently being ranked within the top 5% of Sixth Form centers in the UK. In recent years we have been one of the main sixth form teaching centres as part of Invictus Sixth, but are delighted that from September 2025, we will revert to being a single site sixth form centre, where all students are welcomed, to continue their academic and personal preparation for their post-18 choices.

Inclusive, Aspirational, High-Quality Teaching and Learning

​At Kinver, we take great pride in the achievements of our students. Our ethos is one of high expectations and aspiration, within a caring and supportive environment. We offer both traditional ‘facilitating’ subjects at A-Level as well as Level 3 Applied subjects. High-quality provision is the norm, and the centre regularly achieves the highest (ALPS 1) judgement for sixth form teaching and learning because our teachers have the expertise, experience and knowledge to deliver. But, most importantly, because at K6, teachers focus on the individual.

Relationships, Challenge and Support

​Students choose to continue their studies with us because of the relationships they have developed with their teachers, who know them well. But, because we are a smaller than average sixth form centre, with much smaller class sizes, this means that all students who study at K6 receive an individualised teaching experience that enables them to flourish and reach their potential.​​

Alongside knowing our students well, all students are challenged and supported as part of the school’s regular and robust academic monitoring processes. Students, who are not on track are offered additional support, guidance and coaching to support them towards achieving their best. As part of our commitment to this, at K6, all students are supplied with their learning resources, (a laptop and textbooks) for the duration of their studies. In addition, as part of our Careers Information and Guidance Programme, students receive regular support and advice with their UCAS application, apprenticeship procurement or alternative post-18 pathway.
