Our Mission Statement 

“We strive to help each individual 

student to achieve their full potential. 

Feeling a sense of responsibility for 

the community and valuing everyone’s 

contribution is important to us. 

Care, Commitment and Achievement”. 


Page 3

Mr C Pittaway – Head of Sixth Form 

“The choices and decisions you are about to make 

will affect your options in further education and your 

possible career choice. It is important that you should 

enjoy the courses that you choose and have some 

aptitude for the subjects. However, remember that 

your choice of course may determine your future 

career path. 

The sixth form team is committed to supporting 

students throughout their time in the college. They 

offer differing levels of support from monitoring 

progress, guidance on time management and 

planning, career and university advice and personal 

support. We strive to support students to achieve their 

personal aims, whether this takes one, two or three 

years. Personal tutoring is one of our strengths. 

This guide will give you and your parents important 

information that will help you make an appropriate 

choice but you should also be ready to seek advice 

from subject teachers and careers staff. You will 

want to be as fully informed as possible from the 

beginning. 

We look forward to receiving your application to join 

us in September 2013. Good luck in the summer 

with your exams.”

Sixth Form Life 

Rights and Responsibilities 

As with everything in life, your time as a 

sixth former at Ifield carries many rights and 

responsibilities. As a sixth form student you 

have the right to dress in your own clothes, 

with that you have a responsibility to be a role 

model to the students in years 7 to 11. 

You have the right to non direct study periods 

with the responsibility to use those periods 

wisely by doing homework, coursework and 

private study. You also have the right to 

a private area within the college with the 

responsibility to respect those facilities and 

the people who use them. 

The Sixth Form Council 

Each sixth form tutor group elects two 

members to sit on the Sixth Form Council. 

They carry the responsibility for monitoring 

the Sixth Form Centre, organising social and 

charitable events and considering requests for 

money to be spent from the sixth form fund. 

The sixth form also has two representatives 

on the College Council. 


Page 5

Library 

All sixth form students are able to borrow from the 

library which has a large number of resources to 

support sixth form courses. These include textbooks 

and books for further reading, newspapers and 

magazines. Many of the magazines taken, such as 

“Chemistry Review”, “Psychology Review” etc. are 

designed specifically to support students studying for 

A levels. There is also a collection of fiction and a 

number of DVDs. 

The library’s computerised catalogue is networked 

on computers across the school, meaning that 

students can check the resources held with ease. 

The catalogue also gives some links to appropriate 

websites. Students have access to the Internet, 

Encarta Reference library, giving online articles, atlas, 

dictionary and multimedia features and networked 

CD-ROMs on the state of the art library computers. 

The library also holds a collection of up-to-date 

university and college prospectuses and guides to 

universities. Further information on careers is available 

in the adjacent careers library. Students also have 

access to careers information online. Sixth Form 

students are able to study in the library at all times 

except when the library has been booked for class 

use. There is a qualified librarian based full-time in the 

library to assist students with their research.

In the new college, the students in the sixth 

form enjoy a wide range of facilities. 

They have access to: 

• Two dedicated computer suites with up 

to date computers. 

• Individual study areas within faculties 

which have subject libraries.

Courses & Qualifications 

Courses 

In the Sixth Form we offer a wide range of 

courses at different levels. Table 1 shows 

what type of courses are at each of the 

different levels. 

Level 2 

Some students who have not achieved 5 A* - C 

grades at GCSE may wish to improve their 

qualifications by selecting Level 2 courses 

such as GCSEs, or BTEC First Diplomas. 

These courses are run for 1 year. After they 

are completed, students can progress on to 

Level 3 courses, gain employment or modern 

apprenticeships. 

“On From 16” 

If you’re not sure you want 

to stay on at school, go 

to college or find a full time 

job, then the “On From 16” 

scheme is for you. “On From 16” 

is the shared Level 2 curriculum programme 

in Crawley. It provides you with access to a 

wider range of courses, allowing you to ‘mix 

and match’ courses giving you a tailor made 

programme of study, whilst continuing to 

receive the support and guidance from your 

‘home’ school. 

If you are interested then you need to decide 

which school ‘home’ base best suits you. 

Choose the courses you want to study and 

apply early to your ‘home’ school. 

Level 3 

Most students who stay on in the sixth form 

will normally select a programme of four 

Advanced Subsidiary (AS) or BTEC National 

courses from the wide range available. The 

second year of study enables students to 

gain full A Levels in these subjects, with the 

added flexibility to drop to three or pick up a 

new AS. 

Each AS/A Level carries points. The number 

of points you get depends on your results 

at the end of the course. If you apply for a 

degree, each individual university will say how 

many points they require for you to take the 

course. Table 2 shows the value of points for 

each course.

How To Apply 

Ifield students 

Prior to the Sixth Form Open Day in November you will 

have the opportunity to look through this prospectus 

with your form tutor and parents. The Open Day will 

enable you to discuss your options with the individual 

subject teachers and gain further information about all 

the courses on offer. 

You will then be asked to complete the enclosed 

application form. Sixth Form tutors will be available to 

offer any advice needed. The application form, with 

your first choice of courses, must be returned to your 

form tutor by the end of December. 

In January, you will receive confirmation of your 

application to the Sixth Form for 2013/2014. You will 

then be offered an interview with one of the Sixth Form 

Team to ensure your courses match your plans for the 

future and to discuss your mock exam results. 

Finally, you will receive a letter in the Spring Term which 

notifies you of our decision, listing any changes made 

during your interview and stating that your application is 

dependant on your GCSE results. 

Students new to the college 

Students wishing to apply for a place at Ifield are 

advised to attend the Sixth Form Open Evening. This 

will give you the opportunity to speak to the teachers 

here at Ifield and to meet the team. 

Your completed application form will need to be 

submitted to the college by the end of the autumn 

term. Following receipt of this form, you will be offered 

an interview with one of the team. After the process, 

you will receive a letter notifying you of our decision. 

Late applications 

Applications will be accepted during the spring and 

summer term. However, you should be aware that 

by this stage some courses may be full. 

Disclaimer 

There may be times when courses cannot be offered, 

either because of staffing or student numbers. 

Therefore, Ifield Community College reserves the 

right to change or cancel any courses listed in this 

prospectus. 

AS Blocks – Provisional 29/05/12 

It is not possible for every subject to be available during every 

lesson on the timetable. Therefore, some subjects are taught 

at the same time as others. 

The table above shows which subjects clash in the AS 

timetable 2012/13. As you can see AS Art textiles (in block A) 

clashes with AS English literature (also in block A). Therefore, 

we would strongly recommend that subjects in the same block 

are not applied for. If two clashing subjects are chosen you 

may have to change your options. 

The blocks vary from year to year depending on demand 

and resources.

Students choose one applied module each year. There are a number 

of options to consider which include Statistics, Mechanics and Decision 

Theory. 

Subject Links 

An AS or A2 Mathematics would be suitable choice alongside any 

combination of other subjects. In particular, Natural and Social Science 

courses, ICT Business, Design Technology and Geography. Many 

students also find that skills in Mathematics relate to Music, Art, History 

and Languages. 


“People with A level Maths go on to earn significantly more than their 

peers with equivalent qualifications in different subjects.” 

(Vignoles and Dottam, 1999). 

Even those with grade E earn 8% more on average. In other words, a post 

– 16 course in Maths could be considered desirable for any career choice. 

A2 Mathematics is “preferred” or “required” for a number of degree 

choices. Obvious examples are degrees in Mathematics, Medicine, 

Sciences, ICT and Economics. 


For students hoping to study Mathematics at university, there may be the 

chance to take AS* Further Maths.
