Years 12 and 13
Students are encouraged to start the Sixth Form with four A level subjects; in most cases they will drop a subject in Year 12 and finish with three A levels, though continuing with four subjects is possible. All students follow a Christian Theology course, either as one of their A level choices or the department’s own (non-examined) Core CT course.
The subjects are arranged in options, one subject is chosen from each option block. The option blocks shown below are the option blocks for 2019-2020. Each of the options A - D is taught for 12 lessons per 2 weeks.
A full description of the courses available in the Sixth Form is provided in the Sixth Form options booklet (see below).
Additionally an enrichment programme will be open to all students. Precise details of this programme are not available at the time of writing, but it usually includes such things as EPQ preparation, study skills, Modern languages conversation classes and Oxbridge preparation.
