Welcome to John F Kennedy Catholic School

Welcome from the Sixth Form team

It is a recipe of striving for academic excellence, belonging to a strong community and provision of enriching activities that makes our Sixth Form such an exciting place in which to work and learn.

Our Mission: Inspire, Achieve and Serve

My role as Director of the Sixth Form is to ensure that I provide you with the opportunity to excel in all aspects of school life at John F Kennedy Sixth Form. This could be in the form of a leadership role or through your academic studies. The sentence outlined above epitomises our vision within the Sixth Form. Alongside this, we instil our mission statement of ‘Inspire, Achieve, Serve’. I want you to be role models within the school through inspiring yourself and your peers. Striving to achieve the best in all the objectives and targets you set. Finally, to serve within our Catholic ethos and community. Community is a word that underpins our Sixth Form and the rest of the school.  This is something we pride ourselves on, and I know each and every one of you will be integral to strengthening our community.

At JFK Sixth Form we have a number of incredible opportunities for our students, alongside this I want to provide the support of developing the core values we instil. The most important component within this is you. Our students within the Sixth Form are willing to take risks, learn new skills and further enhance their knowledge and understanding. Our holistic approach will ultimately provide you with finding an ambitious future career path, with an equally ambitious Sixth Form. I look forward to welcoming you within our Sixth Form.

Mr J Joyce

Enrichment Activities

Show all activities
At JFK Sixth Form we believe that ensuring students engage in learning that extends beyond the classroom is a fundamental part of nurturing independent and curious learners. Through our super-curricular programme, we aim to enhance student academic experience by providing opportunities to explore subjects in greater depth, fostering a love for learning that transcends the standard curriculum.

Supercurricular Hour

Every fortnight, students will have an hour dedicated to super-curricular activities. This is their chance to delve deeper into their subjects, explore new areas of interest, and engage with materials that go beyond their usual studies. This hour is set aside specifically to nurture intellectual curiosity and passion for learning. Some of the super-curricular activities that students get involved in are listed below:

Award System

By actively participating in Super-curricular activities and volunteering, students can earn signatures on award cards ranging from Bronze, Silver, Gold and Platinum. Prizes are given to those who have achieved these awards and their cards will be pinned on the noticeboard in the Sixth Form Area.

Volunteering Opportunities

We pride ourselves at JFK for our sense of community, and we encourage students to volunteer in as many capacities as possible:
