The biggest changes when moving Mrs von Etzdorf, Head of Year into Sixth Form are the independence 12 explains… that is given to you by staff, and the roles of responsibility that you have the opportunity to take up. You might think that studying three subjects is a step up, but students relish the opportunity to study subjects they have chosen in depth. There are study periods in which students undertake independent learning and discuss work with other students. Class sizes are smaller than those at GCSE, which makes whole class discussions easier and means that teachers have more time to address any personal queries you may have with work. There are more opportunities to form tighter friendships with class mates, and the relationships developed between students and teachers mean the university references put together are tailored and individual to you. If you are struggling with the new Clubs and Societies workload, the academic mentoring scheme put in place to support new Sixth Formers are encouraged to set up Year 12s makes it easy to transition from GCSE to A Level. and run clubs by themselves.
