Entry into a Sixth Form marks a transition for every student and a student who chooses to study at Newcastle-under-Lyme School Sixth Form is offered a special opportunity to study in an environment that is school based but Sixth Form focused.
Sixth Formers are encouraged to consider themselves as a separate group from the rest of the school whilst still being part of the wider school community. Whether students move from our Year 11, or enter as new Sixth Formers, they are welcomed into a community that has a strong academic tradition and a commitment to extra-curricular interests. The two years of Sixth Form are when potentially important decisions about Higher Education and careers need to be made, and one of our fundamental aims is to help students decide what they want to do after A Levels and then work with them to secure the necessary qualifications and experience needed for their chosen objective.
We believe that the Sixth Form is a place to foster an independent approach to studies and encourage students to take responsibility for their own learning under the guidance of a dedicated pastoral tutor team working with academic staff. The best way to find out about how we try to achieve these goals is to come and visit us and experience a taster day. Please contact us at
