“Education makes us what we are” Claude Adrien Helveticus
Our small class sizes are a vital foundation for success. Our aim is to nurture but challenge individuals who are educated, cultured and have a zest for learning. With our wide range of courses, experienced and dedicated teaching staff and strong sense of community, we help students achieve the best possible results. We ensure every student has a bespoke timetable tailored to meet her individual apitudes, needs and goals.
All students are offered the opportunity to complete an Extended Project Qualification. The qualification provides an opportunity for students to extend their abilities beyond the A level syllabus and to stand out, with the added bonus of earning extra UCAS points. It is also great preparation for university study or future careers. For universities it shows a high level of knowledge and interest in a subject as well as independent learning and is often a key talking point at interviews.
Students who are aiming for Oxbridge entry, for strongly contested courses such as Medicine or Veterinary Science, or for Russell group universities are invited to weekly support sessions which are designed to challenge students by extending their knowledge and understanding through academic topics and current issues outside their A level studies.
Students at Alton Sixth Form join a community committed to success. Students cope better with increased personal responsibility and freedom if they are guided by teachers they already know and who know them. All students attend weekly PSHME lessons to support and enhance their social development as they explore and discuss moral issues.
