“The resources provided by teachers in many subjects are fantastic and<br />

will help you achieve the best grade possible. The overall quality of<br />

learning is outstanding.“ (Student, Year 12)


A LEVEL RESULTS <strong>2018</strong><br />

Alperton Community School students have again exceeded all<br />

expectations with a tremendous set of A Level results. They have been<br />

awarded 81 A* and A grades, with almost 50% of the examinations being<br />

awarded A*, A or B grades. As a result, more than 40% of students from<br />

the A level cohort have been accepted onto top degree courses at<br />

prestigious Russell Group universities.<br />

We are particularly pleased with continued strong performances in Maths<br />

and the sciences. Three quarters of students achieved grades A*/ A / B in<br />

Chemistry, Maths, Further Maths, Art, Media, ICT and Sociology. We are<br />

especially pleased with the exceptional progress students make in Art,<br />

Business Studies, ICT, Media and Sociology.<br />

ICT continued to be a very successful and popular subject with 96% of all<br />

students achieving the highest grade of Distinction*. The <strong>2018</strong> results are a<br />

further improvement on last year’s results which showed academic A Level<br />

results to be higher than the national results.<br />

“The atmosphere of collegiality is<br />

wonderful and the teachers are<br />

always keen to support and advice us.”<br />

(Sixth Form Student)


7 REASONS TO CHOOSE ALPERTON SIXTH FORM<br />

1. We put you first<br />

It’s your life, your future, so we’ll help you put together a programme of study that gets you<br />

where you want to go. You can use our open evenings, our bridging week in the Summer<br />

Term to look at what subjects to take at A Level. We will also sit down with you and talk<br />

through your options in detail at your one-to-one interview. At every stage, we’re here to<br />

listen, advise and support you in your choices.<br />

2. We will provide the best teaching<br />

Our teachers are friendly, experienced, and creative in delivery and real experts in their<br />

subjects. Above all, they’re committed to helping you get the grades you need for whatever<br />

you plan to do next. We are very proud that many of our students meet and exceed their<br />

target grades.<br />

3. We are your kind of people<br />

At Alperton Sixth Form, you’ll be with like-minded people who want to work hard, do well<br />

and get on in life. We’re a tight-knit community of around 350 students and you’ll fit right<br />

in with our high achieving ethos and aspirations.<br />

4. It’s tought at the top, not!<br />

We are consistently in the top 25% for progress of all schools and Colleges in England. Also,<br />

Oxford Analytics Research, an independent company has shown that three of our subjects<br />

at A Level are in the top 12 performing subjects in the country for progress for those<br />

subjects. That’s top 12, looking at more than 2500 institutions! That’s beyond fantastic!<br />

5. We support you with the next steps<br />

Whatever you hope to do after Sixth Form, our dedicated Sixth Form Team will help get<br />

you there. They specialise in UCAS coaching and preparation for university interviews – in<br />

2014 and 2015, more than 90% of our students went on to study at university. The team<br />

can also help you plan a gap year, go on to other types of study or find your first real job or<br />

apprenticeship.<br />

6. Teamwork makes the dream work!<br />

We have a dedicated team of tutors to support you during your transition and every week<br />

during mentoring. They know how to support Sixth Form students and they have been<br />

handpicked to be part of the Sixth Form team. This will ensure you get the best possible<br />

support at all times. We want your dreams to come true!<br />

7. Where everybody knows your name<br />

It’s always a bit overwhelming to start a new season somewhere else. Research has shown<br />

that students achieve best when they stay in their own school. This is because the teachers<br />

know you! They know how to support you and bring out the best in you! We are a Sixth<br />

Form that continues to inspire, continues to achieve and help you be the best you can<br />

possibly be!<br />
