aileybury’s motto ‘sursum corda’, meaning ‘lift up your hearts’ is palpable in its mission to empower every pupil to leave school with the knowledge, skills and compassion to make a positive difference to society. Like most institutions, we believe knowledge is crucial for our pupils’ futures. At Haileybury, Sixth formers here can choose between A-levels and International Baccaureate Diploma pathways
we inspire pupils to learn not only how to succeed in exams, but to have the fundamental life skills and knowledge to make the world a better place. If the last few years have shown us anything, it’s the impact that driven, intelligent and caring individuals can make.

At Haileybury, we strive for our pupils to embody this ethos. Through our holistic sixth form education which balances academic achievement with the development of character, resilience

We strive to embed the core skills, knowledge, creativity and intellectual curiosity that will form the leaders and change-makers of tomorrow that value serving others above all. Our sixth formers enjoy a choice of A-levels alongside the International Baccalaureate Diploma and through both these routes, they embark on a variety of extraordinary opportunities that stretch, challenge and inspire them.
