Sixth Form Life

Autonomy, Aspiration, Individuality and Success

Our Ribston Sixth Form community provides an environment for students to excel academically, personally and socially. Aiming for Excellence is a personal pursuit that can vary greatly from one Sixth Form student to another. Students will be able to devise a Ribston Baccalaureate that is personalised and unique to them, enabling them to explore their passions, develop their talents, and unlock their full potential

Through the Ribston Baccalaureate, students will be able to choose from each strand of programme with offers and activities that interest and excite, and that are relevant to their studies, passions and next steps.

Be Aspirational - Aim Higher Academically

We recommend that students study three A Level subjects, this can be combined with the Extended Project Qualification which we strongly recommend for all students to support Higher Education applications (particularly for Oxbridge and Russell Group institutions). It is possible to study four A Level subjects, although this is not required for University Applications.

Take a look through our Sixth Form Subject Booklet for an overview and entry requirements for all the fantastic subjects on offer here at Ribston.
