Smestow School

Sixth form will offer you the opportunity to study a wide range of both academic and vocational courses, providing you with the qualifications that you require to follow your chosen career path. Students will benefit from high quality teaching that builds upon previous knowledge and skills. Teachers will go above and beyond to support you to ensure that you realise your full potential. An outstanding level of guidance is provided through our pastoral programme. Sixth form students are organised into Year 12 and 13 tutor groups. This enables us to provide you with a bespoke programme that will support you in all aspects of sixth form life and prepare you for life beyond. A wide and varied enrichment programme will ensure that you will develop the skills and qualities needed to enhance applications to university, apprenticeships and employment. Strong results and specific guidance have enabled our previous cohorts to progress onto their chosen destinations. The careers guidance programme you will receive will be of the highest quality. Sixth form students immerse themselves into school life, working with younger students, assisting at open evenings, parent events and acting as excellent role models for the years below. We hope that you will fully embrace these opportunities and inspire those around you. We pride ourselves on being a vibrant, welcoming and inclusive sixth form, which has a wonderful family atmosphere. We have recently revamped our sixth form area to include an inspiring independent study area with built in kitchen, and a welcoming common room where sixth form students can learn and grow. We hope you will join our success story and become part of our sixth form community.
