Sixth Form
We are extremely proud of the academic and personal achievements of all the students in our Sixth Form. Not only do the students enjoy impressive examination results that place us as one of the best state schools in the country, but they repeatedly amaze us with other individual talents and achievements, both at Regional and National level.
At Kendrick School we ensure breadth of opportunity for all students, with staff who offer a holistic education and stimulating experience both in and beyond the classroom.
Our Sixth Form is highly oversubscribed. There are approximately 150 students in each of Years 12 and 13, with approximately 40 external admissions each year. Form groups are vertical with a mix of Year 12 and 13 students in each, with a highly experienced Sixth Form Tutor Team, who provide exceptional pastoral care for every individual.
Kendrick School is committed to providing a flexible and personalised approach to examination entries for all students. Information, advice and guidance for all students enables them to choose the appropriate curriculum pathway and our three and four A-Level pathways are complemented by a programme of personal development, enrichment and physical education. Leadership and volunteering opportunities are plentiful and we expect students to become fully involved in this aspect of school life and become strong role models for the younger years.
We recognise that the world is a complex place to grow up in, with challenges coming from many angles and decisions to be made throughout sixth form life. Our Personal Development curriculum has a student-centred approach which responds to the changing needs of our cohort and enables the students to develop into well rounded individuals who are prepared to tackle successfully the futures they aspire to.
Students thrive in our highly academic environment and go on to access some of the most competitive university courses and degree apprenticeships in the country.
In summary, Kendrick School Sixth Form will provide the culture and environment where students will have the opportunity to work hard and develop a passion for their academic subjects. They will be able to develop as a learner, as well as an individual, achieving their potential and encouraged to flourish along every step of the way. We will nurture the potential of every young person through our broad and diverse curriculum and develop the engineers, lawyers, scientists, writers, artists, businesswomen and leaders of the future.
