WELCOME TO THE HOWARD
We have a fantastic track record and every year our results place us amongst the highest achieving schools in the country, reflecting the excellent teaching from staff who are specialists in their subjects at this level.
The Sixth Form has its own community in school, very separate from the main school so you get the best of both worlds: college life and the opportunities to play a leading role as senior students.
Please do visit the website or come to the Information Evening to find out more about the programmes we offer and what our students have gone on to do. Your two years with us provide a stepping stone to your future careers and we appreciate how important they are.
Come and join us.

LIFE IN THE SIXTH FORM
From the moment you enter our Sixth Form we consider you as part of ‘our team’ and we aim to make these the best two years of your school life.
We have high expectations of you and are constantly impressed by the confident, responsible and high–achieving individuals you become. Sixth Form isn’t just about hard work it is also about taking part whether that is by raising money during Rag week for charity, competing in the Silly Sports afternoon, being part of the Senior Prefect team or organising the Yearbook and the Leavers’ Events. There is something in the Howard Sixth Form for everyone.
What our students say:
Thank you so much for all your kindness and support throughout the past two years - I’m unbelievably grateful for everything that you helped me with. The teachers have been so supportive, not only just academically but in every aspect. I always felt like there was someone there to see me through the wobbles.
Thank you for everything you have done for me over the last two years. Most of all thank you for settling my Mum’s nerves which not many people could do.
