FROM THE HEAD

As the only institution in Corby to focus solely on sixth form study, our students will have access to the widest choice of subjects in the region.

A NEW AND EXCITING CHOICE FOR SIXTH FORM STUDENTS IN AND AROUND CORBY

Our dedicated sixth form college, based in the town centre of Corby, will provide a unique education choice for post-GCSE students. Focussed entirely on sixth form education, our vision is to deliver an outstanding learning experience and extensive enrichment activities so that students flourish academically and can progress on to their first choice universities, degree apprenticeships or employment with the best companies. 10 years ago, we launched the highly successful and popular Bedford Sixth Form which has gone from strength to strength with 93% of pupils achieving the highest grades A*- C and a high proportion of students getting into their first choice university. We will be using our experience in this area to deliver the very best in sixth form education. We will be recruiting staff who are not only subject specialists but also experts in teaching 16-19 year olds so that you will benefit from their focused knowledge and experience. Being a dedicated sixth form, we will be offering the widest range of A-Levels in the region as well as some more vocational diplomas giving you the best possible choice and combination of subjects. Our extensive enrichment programme will provide you with the opportunity to acquire the knowledge, skills, confidence and resilience to thrive in the ever-changing world around us, with a wide range of options from EPQ, taking part in our Debating Society or the Duke of Edinburgh scheme. Based in Chisholm House, Queens Square right in the heart of the town centre, students will be taught in brand new classrooms with the latest technology and equipment in our carbon neutral campus, created in partnership with North Northamptonshire Council. And as founding members of our college, we want to hear from you and get you involved in shaping our provision, so please do come and speak to our team at open days and follow us on social media to find out how you can have input into your own future. We look forward to welcoming you.
