Enrichment and developing good Character in the sixth form is not just seen as an ‘add-on’, but as an integral part of Sixth Form life. Students enjoy external activities every term. Recently, these have included a London treasure hunt, ice skating, the beach, escape rooms, paintballing and laser tag. We offer a wide variety of career advice, guidance and opportunities, including guest speakers, visits to universities, apprenticeships and careers fairs
