COVID-19 Safety Measures

YOUR FUTURE YOUR FUTURE IS SAFE IS SAFE AT COULSDON SIXTH FORM COLLEGE

We would like to reassure all of our students that we are open for academic year 2020-21 and we look forward to welcoming you to our community. We understand that you will have questions about how the disruption caused by COVID–19 will change our operations and processes for the 2020–21 academic year.

Inevitably, we have had to make some changes to ensure that we can continue to keep our students and staff safe through the pandemic. But we want to reassure you that we are doing all we can to ensure that you receive the best possible academic and student experience this autumn.
