Life in the Sixth Form

ACADEMIC
SUCCESS
ANYA
SAM
Everyone wants to succeed, and at St Albans
School you are supplied with the tools and
support to do just that. The high level of staff
expertise across all departments, as well as
the choice of subjects available at A Level
certainly helps. Being able to choose from a
wide selection means that you can focus on
subjects which truly interest you. This results
in an increased work ethic in class, and paired
with smaller class sizes, helps nurture a more
positive learning environment for us all.
Another opportunity you are afforded in the
Lower Sixth Form is a Friday afternoon activity
of your choice, along with fifty minutes’ worth
of Enrichment each week. These two activities
offer a great break from the standard academic
lessons and give you a chance to learn other
important skills. Examples of activities include:
sign language, driving theory, first aid and
public speaking.
St Albans School stands out
for me because it is a very
well-rounded school; one
of the main factors I took
into consideration when
choosing the Sixth Form were
the excellent grades in the
subjects that I wanted to take
at A Level. This was the icing
on the cake for me and when
I knew I truly wanted to go to
this School.
