6th Form

Key Stage 5 has a history of success and has been highly praised by Ofsted for its breadth and depth of course provision for its students. Currently we offer courses in over 50 different subject areas to students in Years 11, 12, 13 and 14.

Entry standards are set according to each course. Students entering our Sixth Form (Post-16) will be required to have at least 5 A* to C Grades (to include English Language) plus a positive reference from their school. A small proportion of students in Years 12, 13 and 14 may apply or be invited to follow Open University degree modules.

We enjoy above National Average scores for Advanced Level results with well above National Average scores for students obtaining A grades; this is a testament to the dedication and commitment of staff and students.

"Sixth Formers make an outstanding contribution to the whole school, developing leadership skill through mentoring, leading the school council and organising activities"- (OFSTED Report)

Extra Opportunities

As well as the normal courses offered, we also support Open University modules for students in Year 12, which applications will be processed for in September 2011. Homewood will also be offering 6th Form Students entry to a Creative Media Specialist Level 3 Diploma in 2011. For more information please contact a member of the KS5 Staff.
