Headteacher's Welcome

Welcome to our supportive, friendly and high achieving Sixth Form community. Here at LPGS6 you will be encouraged and supported to achieve your potential in your academic studies, personally and socially.

Our students are highly motivated and ambitious, benefiting from high quality teaching, academic support and wider opportunities beyond the classroom in a wide range of A-Level and vocational courses. Expert and passionate teachers engage students in challenging, memorable and enjoyable learning experiences within lessons, as well as drawing on their experiences as examiners and detailed knowledge of exam specifications to maximise our students’ chances of success. As a result, our students consistently attain very highly in examinations and realise their ambitions for higher education, apprenticeships and employment.

Alongside academic support and intervention from willing and committed teachers, pastoral care from our team of tutors, mentors, and wellbeing team ensures you receive personalised attention and support as you navigate your Sixth Form studies.

An extensive programme of enrichment opportunities, clubs and societies contributes significantly to our learners’ enjoyment and our students develop strong relationships with peers and adults and memories and friendships, which will last for a lifetime. You will be supported to be resilient, adaptable and confident, with transferable knowledge and skills that will equip you for life.

The Careers Academy at LPGS6 sets us apart from many other schools and colleges. Tailored and individualised programmes of careers advice, information and guidance are enhanced by frequent opportunities to engage with employers, understand the world of work and possible careers in every imaginable field including architecture, computing, education, engineering, finance, law, medicine, psychology.

Our Sixth Form vision ‘Today’s learners, tomorrow’s leaders’ is enacted through the various student leadership opportunities on offer within our Sixth Form and the key role played by students in Years 12 and 13 in developing themselves, others and our school.

Our commitment to you is to support you to achieve highly, enjoy your Sixth Form journey with us and realise your goals and ambitions.

We look forward to welcoming you to the LPGS6 community in September.
