Every opportunity
to be successful
Sports
Enrichment
There is a variety of sports clubs to get involved
with whilst you’re studying at The Weald Sixth
Form. You can join our successful and competitive
football team, or you can make friends outside of
your lessons taking part in our non-competitve sports
activities. If you feel there is something missing, the
Sixth Form Team is always happy to support students
who want to establish a new club or sports team.
This year we had our very first Pool Tournament!
Enrichment projects at The Weald Sixth Form are
equally as popular as sport. As well as the Duke of
Edinburgh Award, students can also become part
of our Green Power Car Project which regularly
races in national and international competitions
at Goodwood race track. As part of a year long
project, every summer The Weald Sixth Form
runs a trip to Kenya. The purpose of the trip is to
primarily support education in Kenya by building
new classrooms for local schools, but our students
also have a life-changing experience by being
exposed to new cultures and challenges. The trip
typically lasts for three weeks with 30-40 students
taking part. We also give every Year 12 student the
opportunity to undertake a week of work experience.
Through all of these Super-Curricular opportunities
our aim is to develop important character traits
such as collaboration, resilience, responsibility and
engagement. We believe that Sixth Form should be
about so much more than academic study alone.
Tutoring
Students in Years 12 and 13 have the opportunity
to undertake weekly voluntary tutoring positions
for lower school pupils. Arranged by subject areas,
these roles not only benefit our younger students
academically, but provide Sixth Form students with
vital work experience and a chance to be a valued
role model within the wider school community.
