Sixth Form Academy

We're guessing you want one of two things when you leave us; either to be ready to get a job or to be prepared for higher education.

We have a great range of courses, from entry level right up to a Degree, so no matter what your qualifications we can help you get where you want to be.

If you're looking for a job:

• Our lecturers have worked in industry and are experts in their field
• We've built up great links with employers to give you real work experience
• We have dedicated staff who are here to make sure you reach your career goals.

If you want to go on to university:

• Three distinctions at National Diploma level will get you there
• Many of our students go on to their first choice of university because we're excellent at helping you apply to UCAS
• If you are on an Apprenticeship you can also progress on to higher education by studying a Foundation Degree
• Of course you might love us so much you decide to stay - we offer a great range of higher education courses.

Remember, we're investing £60 million on new facilities - have a look at what is waiting for you on our world class facilities page.
