About

ag6 provides an exciting post-16 learning experience, offering a varied curriculum in a stimulating environment that provides students of all academic abilities with a personalised and individual study programme.

This can include the Pathway Programme for those students who are not quite ready to move to Level 3 study, a full range of A-Level and Applied courses or a blend of the two. We encourage activities beyond the classroom offering a range of unique and exciting enrichment courses to enhance the educational experience of our students.

We encourage our students to show initiative and develop leadership skills through involvement in our Student Union. Our purpose built Sixth Form Centre provides the environment to encourage an independent approach to learning, offering students excellent study facilities in a caring environment. ag6 is the stepping stone to higher education, further training or employment.
