About 6th form

With a laser focus on the subjects that interest our students most, the Sixth Form brings responsibilities alongside privileges and freedom. Students can explore their favourite topics in depth as they progress to become independent learners. They will also get the chance to embrace leadership opportunities and take the first steps into university, apprenticeships, or employment. We encourage our sixth formers to get involved in all aspects of school life and develop their confidence, sense of ambition and social responsibility.

The Sixth Form experience at SBUA offers a wide range of subjects, high-quality teaching and support in contemporary, state-of-the-art facilities that include a co-working room, silent area, and library.

A flexible timetable allows students to combine A Levels with vocational qualifications, an opportunity rarely available at sixth forms. Find out more from the curriculum page here
