Driffield School and Sixth Form

Our Sixth Form enjoys a strong reputation both locally and nationally and we’re proud of the achievements made by our students. We are a vibrant community with an enrichment programme which allows students to build a CV which will compete with the best the UK can offer. We are also ambitious for our students and provide them not only with the opportunity to excel academically but also allow them the space to develop personally. This success doesn’t happen by accident! Students receive excellent teaching and support from staff who are always prepared to go the extra mile for their classes. This encourages students to develop into independent learners, ready to face the challenges of life after Driffield Sixth Form. We believe that we are building one of the most caring, vibrant, challenging, inspiring and exciting post 16 environments in the country. We are dedicated to giving students the best academic support and most diverse range of opportunities possible to ensure that they will look back on two years that rank as some of the best of their life. Our commitment as a Sixth Form Team is to give all we can to students during their time with us in order for them to have the foundations they need for a successful future. Our primary aim is to ensure that every student here achieves the best possible results in order to access the future of their choice. Our students have gained great results in recent years, with students of all abilities making great progress. Many have headed off to begin courses at the country’s most prestigious universities. 31% of our students went to Russell Group Universities, more than double the national average, and 93% went to their first choice university or into apprenticeships/training with the company of their choice.
