The Sixth Form team
Our team of Sixth Form
Tutors, Sixth Form Managers
and a Progress Coach,
provides support, guidance
and help for every student.
Students see their Form
Tutors regularly, in small
groups or on a one-to-one
basis, so they are very
well placed to help with
any academic or pastoral
concerns or queries. They
also provide individual
support for students in
making decisions for their
next steps after Sixth Form.
Graham Cook
Heidi Tucker
Head of Sixth Form
Since becoming Head of
Sixth Form in 2024, my role
has been to have an oversight
of the academic progress of
all Sixth Form students and to
ensure that they have a range
of valuable experiences beyond
the classroom. I work alongside
our expert Subject Teachers and
Subject Leaders to ensure that we
plan and deliver an interesting
curriculum that meets the needs of
the students in our community.
Sixth Form Manager (full time)
My role is to look after each
of the 300+ students in
our Sixth Form community, both
pastorally and academically.
I am on hand to support you
through every step of your Sixth
Form journey, from settling in to a
new environment to guiding and
advising you on post Sixth Form
Progression routes, as well as
everything in between! I will listen
and respond, as well as monitor
and praise in order to make your
time in Sixth Form a positive and
successful experience, preparing
you for life after The Weald!
Karen Goodwin
Denise Tandy and
Amanda Ridley and
Sixth Form Manager (part time)
I am based in the Sixth Form
Office and I have oversight of
the pastoral needs of our cohort
of students. I also support with
academic progress and liaise with
individual students, subject staff
and parents. My main priority is
to make sure that you are happy
and successful whilst you study
with us at The Weald. We provide
an environment to both learn and
grow, and it is wonderful to see
our students flourish during their
time with us!
Prue Teale
Ashleigh White
Sixth Form Progress Coach and
SEND Mentor
Our role is to support
students to enable them
to reach their full potential. Mrs
Tandy supports students during
timetabled Progress Coaching
sessions with developing their
skills, thus enabling them to
achieve the best outcome in their
A Level and BTEC courses. The
support offered is dependent on
their individual needs. Mrs Teale
mentors students on our SEND
register to ensure that they are
equipped to succeed in Key
Stage 5.”
Sixth Form Administrators
As the Sixth Form
Administrators, we will often
be your first point of contact
on a day to day basis. We can
help with any queries you may
have and point you in the right
direction to find the information
you need. For new students
applying, we co-ordinate and
help with all stages of the
application process, and for
those nearing the end of their
studies with us, we help with
checking UCAS applications
before they are sent.”
