Sixth Form seminar
All pupils in the Sixth Form have a timetabled session each week for their Sixth Form Seminar. This is an opportunity for pupils to hear from professionals who come to speak to the pupils about different careers, leadership, university and apprenticeships, PSHEE and personal development.
Most sessions take the format of a lecture with an opportunity for questions but the flexibility of these weekly slots allows the Sixth Form to be advised and led according to their needs.
