‘The resources and support available are fantastic,<br />

the teachers are passionate about their subjects<br />

and are always willing to help… the environment<br />

is positive, supportive and friendly.’<br />

(Adam Ellison, Sixth Form Student)<br />

Sixth Form at The <strong>Cotswold</strong> <strong>School</strong><br />

The Sixth Form flourishes, with over 250 students enjoying exceptional teaching across more<br />

than 30 subject areas in a broad, innovative and high-achieving curriculum. Achievement is<br />

‘Outstanding’ (Ofsted) with A Level results that have ranked consistently in England’s Top State<br />

<strong>School</strong> Sixth Forms.<br />

The Sixth Form at The <strong>Cotswold</strong> <strong>School</strong> is known <strong>for</strong> its highly successful University preparation.<br />

Year on year our students set their sights and win places at the country’s top universities - such<br />

as Ox<strong>for</strong>d, Cambridge and others in the Russell Group - and on highly competitive Apprenticeship<br />

Programmes.<br />

The Sixth Form shares the positive, enthusiastic, focused atmosphere that is evident<br />

throughout the school and which is often remarked upon. Additionally, the Sixth<br />

Form has its own distinctive character – one that reflects the growing maturity and<br />

independence of the young adults who <strong>for</strong>m it.<br />

Working in this friendly, caring environment with its strong academic ethos, our<br />

Sixth Form students are encouraged to aspire. Their teachers, meanwhile, are readily<br />

accessible – taking an active, mentoring role, sharing in the students’ high expectations<br />

and helping them prepare <strong>for</strong> the next chapter in their lives.<br />

While the current Sixth Form Centre provides excellent learning facilities <strong>for</strong> the students including<br />

a fully networked study room and a busy, social Common Room, a new, greatly enhanced<br />

<strong>Cotswold</strong> <strong>School</strong> Sixth Form Centre is now under way. The Sixth Form is regarded as the ‘flagship’<br />

of the school – a privileged position from which students can benefit from and also enrich<br />

the life of the school as a whole.<br />
