Sixth Form Prospectus - Kimbolton School

Views from a recent student who joined the school in the Lower SixthvvvvvvvvWithout Kimbolton I wouldn’t be where I am today; the help and support I received gave methe confidence and determination to succeed and reach my full potential.The relationship between student and teachers is respectful... students are treated like adultsand every teacher is committed to the success of the student.Family atmosphere.I have seen places that I never dreamt I would see... The American Exchange was an incredibleexperience: visiting New York, making some amazing friends, unforgettable experiences,learning about a new culture - I would recommend the American Exchange to any new-comer.At first it seems daunting but it brings you closer to all your school friends and it is somethingyou will remember for the rest of your life.Another amazing experience was the trip to Russia. As a historian, the sights I saw and the thingsI learnt helped with my A level, and as a whole the trip was another unforgettable opportunity;an interesting and exciting insight into Russian culture (and freezing weather conditions) andamazing memories with some of my best friends that will stay with me forever.Kimbolton has helped me achieve A level results that I am proud of, I never dreamt I wascapable of such grades before coming to Kimbolton... but for me it’s not all about the results,Kimbolton has encouraged, supported and guided me to becoming the person I am today.I have received so much help when deciding about universities and UCAS, because like manystudents I had no idea where my life was taking me.When I look back at my time in Kimbolton I know there was nowhere else I would have ratherbeen, every aspect of my school career... education, social, sports, extracurricular activitiesetc has developed me into who I am. I would recommend Kimbolton to anyone, it has beenan amazing experience, I have learnt so much and I have some of the happiest memories thatwill always stay with me. It’s been the best two years of my life, and now as I move on to newchapter of my life I will always say that I am proud to be from Kimbolton.Jodie HughesJodie (2nd from left) and friends
