Be part of something special

"I have loved everything about being here, the friendships I have made and the positive learning environment." Anna, Year 13 leaver. An

extension of the main school, and yet with its own unique atmosphere and environment in the historic Manor, Shottery Sixth Form really is a special place to learn with like-minded peers and expert teaching. Whether you have been with us since Year 7 or join us in Year 12, as Anna did, you will find a warm welcome and a dazzling array of opportunities.

Be outstanding

Our results speak for themselves. Consistently achieving amongst the highest A-level results in the country, Shottery Sixth Form students stand out. In 2017, 76% of A-level grades were A*to B, with an incredible 67% of our leavers gaining at least AAB in two or more, Russell Group approved, facilitating subjects. This underlines the importance we place on providing students with outstanding advice and guidance, supported by a curriculum designed to facilitate access to the most prestigious universities and higher level apprenticeships.

Be inspired

Whether your ambition is to study Engineering at Cambridge, read Languages at Oxford, Medicine at Manchester, Maths at Durham or

Drama at Rose Bruford, we have a 2017 alumna able to advise. Our fantastic alumnae network allows current students to keep in touch with those who have recently left and learn from their experiences whether at university or in the world of work; whilst our peerless sixth form speaker programme encourages students to connect with an extraordinary range of leaders from the worlds of politics, business, the arts and beyond.

Be challenged

We challenge all our students to be the very best they can be. Tess, a 2017 leaver told us, “Shottery pushed me to reach my academic

potential and win a place at Oxford University." Livia thanked us for, “helping and guiding [her] through the process of applying for medicine,” and is now in her first year at Manchester University.

Our sixth form is made up of outstanding individuals, and, from curriculum to our dress code, we celebrate that individuality and look forward to you becoming part of our incredible sixth form.
