1. You’re our number one priority

It’s your life, your future, and we do everything we can to make sure you get where you want to be.  There’s always someone available to discuss the options available to you and at every stage of your sixth form career we are here to listen, advise and support you in your choices.  Everything we offer in our Sixth Form is to help you stand out from the crowd and become top of your chosen field. 


2. Loads of subject choice

We offer an extensive range of A Levels in the East Riding and that’s in addition to the EPQ, AQA Baccalaureate, our Applied Academic courses and our accredited enrichment courses such as CSLA and HSLA.


3. The best teaching

Our teachers are some of the best in the business – friendly, experienced, full of ideas and real experts in their subjects.  Above all, they are committed to helping you get the grades you need for whatever you plan to do next.


4. Part time work in the school and sports centre

Our Sixth Form is part of the larger South Hunsley family and is based on the same site as South Hunsley School and Sports Centre.  This means that whilst studying with us you can also find part time work that fits nicely around your studies.


5. Plenty of new and enriching opportunities

Whatever your interest, there will be something for you on our enrichment programme.  You’ll have the chance to study for extra qualifications such as our sports leaders awards, or you might choose to volunteer and provide in-class support at South Hunsley School or one of our local primary schools.  There’s also work experience, industry mentoring, or our college ambassador scheme to name just a few of the enrichment options you’ll have available.


6. A guaranteed great time!

We have a wide range of clubs and societies for you to join, whatever your interests there is something for you.  Being linked with South Hunsley School also means you can join a large choir or orchestra, get involved in school musicals doing things like set design and join one of our highly successful sports team who frequently win local, regional and national tournaments.

There’s also the huge number of trips that you can take part in.  Many of these are linked to your subject courses and give you the chance to go on trips both in the UK and overseas!


7. Leaders of the future

We offer loads of ways for students to develop their leadership skills.  You might want to stand for Head Boy or Head Girl or join the student leadership team in another capacity.  


8. An excellent place to learn

With our own café, learning resource centre, social spaces for Year 12 and 13 and dedicated subject facilities such as our Media Music Suite, you can be sure that you’ll have all the resources you need to help you excel in your studies.


9. You’ll get where you want to be

We don’t want anything to come between you and your ambitions.   Every year our students achieve outstanding sets of results and, combined with all the additional skills you’ll have gained from our enrichment programmes, you can be sure of a CV or UCAS personal statement that will help you go places.  We have an exceptional success rate when it comes to getting students into their chosen universities. Don’t worry if university isn’t your thing as we also help many of our students get into high level apprenticeships, or head off on gap years, overseas study or find their first job.


10. We’re easy to get to

We’re situated on a number of bus routes and whether you live in Cottingham, Market Weighton, Hull or one of the South Hunsley villages you’ll find it very easy to get to our Sixth Form.  Plus with our hugely discounted bus passes your daily return journey to Sixth Form should cost no more than 70p.  Click here to find out more.
