Small enough to know you. Big Enough to open doors
These are the two years that change everything.
A time to discover who you are, what inspires you and where your future might lead. A time to take on greater independence, pursue your passions and prepare for life beyond school.
At St Edward's Sixth Form, you will be known as an individual, challenged to achieve your best and supported every step of the way.
Whether you have been part of the St Edward's community for years or are joining us for Sixth Form, you will find a warm, ambitious and welcoming environment where students thrive academically, socially and personally.
Changing schools midway through their secondary school journey was the best decision we made for our children. Not only have they loved their time at St Eds, but they have thrived emotionally and academically.
Your subjects. Your opportunities. Your future.
At St Edward’s, Sixth Form isn't about disappearing into a crowd.
It's about becoming more independent, while being surrounded by people who know you, believe in you and understand what you are capable of.
Small classes mean more discussion, more individual attention and teachers who know how you learn. That's why 51% of our A levels were A*/A.
But a smaller Sixth Form shouldn't mean a smaller experience.
That's why we combine highly personalised education with opportunities that reach far beyond the classroom , connecting you with universities, professions, employers, entrepreneurs, creatives, scientists, engineers and the wider world.
Known as an individual. Challenged to achieve. Free to become.
Small Enough to Know You. Ambitious Enough to Take You Anywhere.
Personal attention. Bigger opportunities.
At St Edward's, being smaller is our strength.
You won't be one student among hundreds. Your teachers will know your strengths, where you need support, what motivates you and where you want to go.
That means:
- small classes and individual academic attention;
- teachers who know you , and notice when you need help or greater challenge;
- a Sixth Form programme shaped around individual ambitions;
- genuine opportunities to lead, participate and make an impact;
- a community where you belong;
- access to experiences, people and opportunities far beyond the school gates.
You don't need a bigger school.
You need a bigger experience.
So super impressed and grateful to St Edward's for all the support, motivation and expansive thinking it has offered.
Your Future. Personally Planned.
Not just ‘where can I go?’ but ‘what is right for me?’
Your future shouldn't be one-size-fits-all. Neither is our guidance.
At St Edward’s, careers guidance isn't a programme you simply pass through. It is personal.
We take the time to understand who you are, what you are good at, what interests you and where you might thrive, and then work with you individually to identify the right next step.
Whatever your ambition, you will have experienced people alongside you to help you make informed choices and put together the strongest possible application.

I have had the most amazing time at St Ed's! The teachers have all been so supportive and have helped me go from a C to an A in Biology. I have been given so many amazing opportunities and I'm going to be so sad to leave.
Your Network Starts Here
Who you meet can change where you go. Your professional network shouldn't begin after university. It can begin at 16.
You can access:
Mentoring | Work experience | Workplace visits | Professional talks | Networking | Mock interviews | Career insight | University contacts | Industry projects
Sixth Form Life
Work hard. Make friends. Enjoy it.
Sixth Form should be memorable.
Your friends matter. Your social life matters. Having somewhere that feels like yours matters.
That's why we're creating a Sixth Form experience with its own identity.
Greater independence, dedicated spaces, social events, black tie events, trips, activities and opportunities to spend time together.
