Curriculum
A Level and BTEC Pathway
Our A level offer combines 3 A level subjects or 2 A level subjects with 1 vocational subject, that has a dedicated 9 hours minimum of learning over a 2 week timetable.
Within the sixth form timetable there are independent study sessions, as well as supervised study sessions, alongside your taught subject. The independent study area allows for students to read, research and undertake homework and revision when they are not in class.
There is a timetabled supervised study session for each taught A level subject per week where your teachers will set exam questions/work that will help you develop the skills to answer exam questions to your full potential.
Research suggests that students should self study for at least the amount of time as you have timetabled subject lessons.
For certain subjects - sciences, maths and psychology we provide you with an UpLearn login. UpLearn is a smart learning platform for independent study that aids students learning. All A level students will have the opportunity to take a week long placement at the end of year 12 to support their chosen career and UCAS application.
Our BTEC offer gives students an opportunity to study a range of vocational options. There are a range of combinations which students can choose from the BTEC choices and we also allow some combinations to students to study A Levels and Btecs together. Your options will be discussed with you at your Sixth Form interview.
