Sixth Form Overview

At Cranbrook School, we believe in the development of each student as a whole person. This has led us to create a Sixth Form Experience that creates not only academic learners, but bold leaders, curious thinkers and strong but supported students who are ready to head into the world and forge their own pathways. Our curriculum is developed with this is mind and allows each student the opportunity to find and develop themselves.

Our Sixth Form consists of about 300 students, who study across the school site as well as in their dedicated 2 storey Sixth Form Centre. On the top floor are silent and supervised study sessions every period of the week, where students can sign in to study in an individual work space or access a computer and printer. On the ground floor is a group work area and relaxation zone where students can work collaboratively, discuss ideas with other students or make use of a comfortable place to sit and relax between studying.

Our curriculum is based on high academic expectations that are combined with a strong Personal Development curriculum and Pastoral Programme that includes Careers, Transferable Skills, Charity and Awareness, Leadership opportunities, Academic Mentoring, PSHE and Enrichment as well as Intervention Pathways for students who need more help and care beyond the classroom. We listen to our students, and respond to the needs they have in an ever-developing world.

As part of the Sixth Form Team, we also have a dedicated UCAS Co-ordinator who supports our students to take the next steps at a range of universities and courses including Oxbridge, Medicine, Russell Group, International Universities and Degree Apprenticeships. We also have a Careers Lead and an independent Careers Advisor to help our students transition to their preferred next steps.
