Practise independent living in School Farm Lane
School Farm Lane is a unique opportunity for Ackworth Sixth Form students to experience the realities of independent living in a university house share. Situated on the school campus, School Farm Lane is a recently updated, detached former schoolhouse. All students will have the opportunity to live, cook, clean and study together in the property as a small group for a whole week. This is a real point of difference for students and demonstrates Ackworth’s commitment to delivering an innovative, all-round education that equips students for the realities of a transition from school life into adulthood. It is a residential school initiative unlike any other!
A truly International community
Ackworth Sixth Form gives students the opportunity to interact with peers from all over the world. You will become part of a ready-made global community with exposure to multiple languages and cultures. Ackworth Sixth Form students are inevitably outward looking and aware of other perspectives and cultures, which is an essential skill in the modern workplace. We see lasting international friendships develop year after year which often become the foundations of important networking opportunities. We have many examples of students making ‘friends for life’; holidaying together, setting up businesses and even starting a family.
“For me, two years studying at Ackworth School as a Sixth Form student have been brilliant. The school staff have been wonderful in helping me to adapt to an environment that is new to me. I love studying in Westwood or taking time out in the Sixth Form Centre. If get demotivated, my teachers and friends always encourage me and cheer me up.”
