Welcome to Overton Grange Sixth Form Welcome to our Sixth Form prospectus which introduces you to the wide range of opportunities available at Overton Grange for our Post 16 students. The Sixth Form at Overton Grange has its own distinct identity but is also very much a part of the wider school. Most of our GCSE students opt to stay with us into Year 12 and we welcome many students from other schools to join our community. We know that the decision to continue your education beyond the age of 16 is an important one and that each of you will have individual ambitions. Our role is to help support you to achieve your chosen goals and ultimately we want each of you to: • Achieve your true potential • To be well prepared for life beyond the Sixth Form, be that at university, work or elsewhere • To feel apart of our school community by participating in a wide range of activities • To become responsible young adults and positive role models for younger students and in the wider community Our impressive facilities and high quality teaching enables students to excel and our excellent exam results are a credit to the hard work of both students and staff. Sixth formers here are certainly achieving and exceeding all expectations. Life in Overton Grange Sixth Form is a really enriching experience. Universities, colleges and employers want to see that students have more than simply academic qualifications and we go to great lengths to ensure that our Year 12 and 13 students have the opportunity to take part in experiences that will enhance their own lives and make them stand out from others. All students will take part in the exciting CAS programme which will allow them to take an active role in developing leadership skills and ensures that all sixth formers experience a wide and varied range of activities. We would ask that anyone looking to join us in Overton Grange’s Sixth Form is willing to take up the challenge of becoming an independent learner, taking responsibility for their own learning and future. We will expect a high standard of conduct, a smart appearance, a positive attitude and a drive for personal success. We want to recruit students who are open minded and want to become active and responsible citizens and we will offer inspirational teaching, support and guidance; if you match this with hard work, enthusiasm and dedication then you will achieve what you want. We expect our Sixth Form to provide a dynamic, challenging and enjoyable experience. If you have the ambition then we believe that we are the institution to help you to realise your potential. We hope you decide to join us.
There are lots of opportunities to gain CAS hours, I’ve found it really rewarding and I am proud to be a representative of the school” - Student
