The Interview Of
A Sixth Former
A Sixth Formers View on the Whole Department
In my opinion the sixth form as a whole department is a very good thing to
have. It helps us to decide what we want to do after it such as college and
university. I also think that the staff who work in the sixth former centre are
very nice and helpful.

What an Average Sixth Formers Time Table

Consists of
This is just an explanation of the subjects/lessons which every sixth former has to take the not the ones that they have chosen. They must do
activities on Wednesday afternoon such as sports. Then Wednesday period 3 and Friday period 1 they have to do tutorial where they talk
about general issues.

Opportunities in which sixth formers can get

involved with
There are some extremely good opportunities which the sixth
formers and I can get involved with, we can become a prefect in
which we help out our school in many ways. We can also mentor
younger students to help them with their upcoming exams. Both of
these look very good on a CV.

Facilities
Our school has a designated sixth form centre which gives our
students a place to do private studies and to relax during break, lunchtimes
or free periods. Sixth form assemblies and various presentations also occur
in this area. Also in this centre, there is a special canteen purely for sixth
formers.

The Sixth Form achievements

Our sixth formers achieve amazing results in their A-Level exams at
the end of Key Stage 5. Last year 96% of A-Levels were passed. 55% of
A-Level results were at a* a or b grades. The schools results were
just out of the top 50 schools in 2013 and has consistently been in the
top 100 since.

How their canteen differs from the main two

In the sixth form centre we have their own canteen. It is
substantially smaller than the other two canteens as it only caters for
one department . They also serve different food to the other canteens:
they serve kebabs, a variety of baguettes, cans, crisps and more.

The Best thing about the sixth form
In my opinion the best aspect of being at the sixth form has to be having
our own department/space to just chill out or do private studies. As you can
see in the pictures on the next page, it is separate to the rest of our school.
Also, I enjoy the fact that the staff treat sixth formers as more mature and
we have more responsibilities.
