    Why Us?

    "Prince Henry's was my catapult"

    In the Sixth Form at Prince Henry’s we want every student to succeed, and to do so to the best of their ability, in order to develop knowledge, skills and attitudes that will serve them will throughout their future, wherever that may take them.

    As Ofsted said about our 'Outstanding' Sixth Form provision, "Staff are skilled and knowledgeable about the subjects they teach. Lessons in the sixth form, often containing complex content, are expertly implemented. Students are encouraged to be independent and ambitious. Many sixth-form students achieve highly in academic and vocational qualifications. The vast majority go on to higher education or apprenticeships."

    Sixth Form is an important time in a student's life, and we want them to enjoy the experience while at the same time setting themselves up to take successful next steps in life.  We believe that the best way to do that is through having high standards in attitude, organisation and appearance, in order to achieve personal and academic excellence.

    In order to support this, we provide a challenging, enjoyable and rewarding environment in which the curriculum is tailored to allow students to flourish.  Prince Henry’s Sixth Form is a place where students can form strong foundations for future academic study or careers, gain essential life skills and develop friendships that last. 

    We really want Sixth Form to be the pinnacle of your school career, whether you come through Prince Henry’s at 11-16 or join us from another local school.  If you are looking for a school that will give you the support and challenge needed to make the best of yourself in these vital years, then Prince Henry’s is the place for you.

Prince Henry's has given you a brilliant kitbag and springboard for success and I hope you will benefit from this foundation in all that you do."
