Welcome to the Sixth Form at Vandyke
Vandyke Sixth Form is a place where students can aspire and are supported to achieve their full potential. The success of the Sixth Form is based on a number of important ingredients including high expectations, excellent teaching, high quality support and guidance and rigorous monitoring.
However, just as important is our ethos which is based on a number of important values and attitudes that we support our students to develop. We expect them to be ambitious, self-motivated, to be resilient, have integrity, be respectful and aim for personal and academic excellence.
We are incredibly proud of the outstanding achievement of our students. Over the past six years students of all abilities have performed consistently in the top 10-20% of all students nationally. This has allowed many of our students to secure places on a range of university courses including Russell Group and Oxbridge institutions. In addition, students have secured higher level degree apprenticeships with top employers such as Santander, Ernst and Young, UBS, VW, Vauxhall, BE Aerospace and many more.
A typical programme of study for a Year 12 student is as follows:
