Studying here at The Weald
Sixth Form has been such
a great experience. The subjects
are great, and the teachers are
really helpful. Studying what I
truly am interested in has helped
my motivation a lot in school, and
having a smaller class size has
really allowed me to focus and
get direct help from my teachers
without feeling unheard. The extra
support given to me by the Sixth
Form staff has been amazing,
and there hasn’t been a moment
during my time here where I’ve felt
that I’ve had no options for help,
whether it be for schoolwork or
mental health. Studying here has
been great, and I feel confident
and supported throughout every
decision I make.
I chose to come to The
Weald Sixth Form as it was
the best environment for me to do
my A Levels in. The class sizes are
small which allows for more oneto-one learning which is important
as there is more content to learn
in A Levels, and you get to know
people in your classes really
well. I really enjoy the freedom
The Weald offers. The balance of
structure and free time works well,
and there is plenty of opportunity
to hang out with friends. The
support offered by the staff is
extremely helpful, where you can
talk to them if you are having any
issues or problems. Being one of
the prefects as well allows me
to get more understanding and
gain more skills when it comes to
charity events, it allows for me to
be more involved with the school
and working in teams which will
help me in the future.
What really appealed
to me about The Weald
Sixth Form was that I liked the
courses offered in the subjects I
wanted to study, for example, the
Tudor module in History. I also
particularly liked the option to
complete an EPQ in Year 12 as I
knew it would help me develop
my writing and research skills in
preparation for university. I found
the atmosphere in Sixth Form
really welcoming when I came to
visit and as an external student
I have found it really easy to
make friends. There are lots of
opportunities to get involved and I
have taken part in music concerts,
volunteered at the primary school
for Super- Curricular and am
proud to have been elected as a
prefect. This summer, I am looking
forward to going to Kenya to build
classrooms and have been busy
raising money for this. The Sixth
Form is really supportive and
there are lots of options for extra
help if I need it. As a dyslexic
student I find the smaller classes
beneficial and the teachers really
helpful.
