Head's welcome
Wellingborough Sixth Form is a place where we prepare you for life beyond school.
Academic work and success are central to this community, and the overriding ethos is that the pursuit of intellectual curiosity is both expected and encouraged in partnership with our experienced subject teachers.
Our supportive and experienced Sixth Form Team work with you, encouraging you to develop the skills that you will need in readiness for your choices ahead.
Pastoral care
The PSHE curriculum fosters pupils’ economic awareness effectively. Older pupils learn about student finance, tax and mortgages.

Academic excellence
A level qualifications are a substantial academic commitment and students should expect to spend as much time working independently outside of lessons as they do in the classroom to achieve their potential. The annual Sixth Form Opening Evening is an opportunity to speak with Heads of Department and subject teachers about the curriculum offered in the Sixth Form and your personal suitability for those courses. Tailored advice is available from our academic leadership team.

Life after Wellingborough
Upon leaving the Sixth Form, our students can take many routes: into higher education, into apprenticeships and into work. During their time in the Sixth Form, we will ensure they make informed choices about their futures through advice from our Careers Department, talks from external speakers, visits to universities and careers and apprenticeships fairs.
