Sixth Form Curriculum
After GCSEs it is important to receive quality guidance when choosing from the wide-range of courses available so that students achieve their absolute best. Our Sixth form team and dedicated careers advisory team are very experienced in successfully providing this bespoke advice.
We offer a choice of two different level 3 pathways that cover a broad range of academic, creative and vocational subjects. Both pathways allow progression to competitive universities, apprenticeships, or employment. There is also the opportunity, with agreement by the Head of Sixth Form, to re-take GCSE Maths and English Language as well as studying community languages to A-level. Course subjects are always under review.

EXTENDED PROJECT QUALIFICATION
Students can opt to study the Extended Project Qualification (EPQ) alongside any of the pathways above. This is worth half an A level and involves students planning and producing an independent project of their choosing. This can be a written dissertation, investigation, performance, or an artifact. In support of our students completing the Extended Project Qualification (EPQ), we partner with ‘Off the Curriculum’ who are an educational charity working across London on their academic journey.
