Sir John Lawes School
Welcome to
Sir John Lawes School Sixth Form
Sixth Form education provides a transition between
GCSE studies and college, university or employment.
Progression and continuity are important for students
and the Sixth Form at Sir John Lawes provides an
environment where students are encouraged to
achieve academic success as well as developing as an
individual.
The aim of the Sixth Form is to ensure the best
possible learning experience for you, the students,
while providing other opportunities for you to develop
your talents.
Your decision to apply for a place in the Sixth Form is a
demonstration of your desire to continue your
education. All post 16 courses will require your
wholehearted commitment in order for you to achieve
the best possible outcome. The Sixth Form team and
your subject teachers will support you in this, but it is an
individual decision that requires full commitment.
Do spend some time reading the subject information
provided in this prospectus, talk to the relevant subject
staff and consider carefully the combination of
subjects before you make your final decisions.
