Sixth Form Curriculum

“I love studying the subjects I enjoy the most and being able to explore them inside and outside of lessons.”

Lorna
Class of 2024

An exciting opportunity awaits you…

During these two precious academic years, you’ll specialise in the subjects you’re most passionate about; benefit from the specialist expertise of experienced teachers; and exchange intellectual ideas with similarly ambitious young women.

Sixth Form is also about trying new learning experiences, such as the Extended Project Qualification (EPQ) where you can deep dive into a chosen topic or area you’re personally curious about.

Of course, your studies will be further enriched by diverse visits, trips, conferences, and extra-curricular activities, helping to shape you academically and personally.

Every student also has the opportunity to attend timetabled extension sessions; these are particularly useful for those applying to competitive university courses including Oxbridge, preparation for Olympiads, or for students who are keen to extend their knowledge beyond the A Level specifications.
