Haggerston School

SIXTH FORM

Haggerston Sixth Form is a vibrant, flourishing and achievement focussed sixth form which develops its students into young leaders with high levels of academic success.

Situated in the vibrant heart of Hackney, close to the creative and dynamic Hoxton and to all of the employment opportunities of the City of London, Haggerston Sixth Form combines a close-knit and supportive learning environment with an exciting range of enrichment opportunities. Haggerston Sixth Form offers a selection of high quality courses with excellent teaching and learning. Our subject offer ranges from traditional AS and A2 combinations in sciences, humanities and social sciences to art and technology and to more vocational and applied BTEC courses in health and social care and sport. Our curriculum has been tailored to suit everyone’s abilities and interests. In the sixth form, teachers and students work together to ensure that success is achieved at the highest level in any given course of study. In addition to academic achievement, students focus on the work and leadership skills which prepare them for their next steps. This combined with our aspirational academic environment has led to excellent rates of progression to top Universities and apprenticeships. Our sixth form students learn in modern spacious classrooms and have access to a dedicated study room with good ICT facilities. The school’s technology specialism ensures art and design subjects receive an inspirational space for creativity, and the school grounds contain calming green spaces which are rarely found in London schools. In order to ensure that our students really stand out from the crowd, Haggerston offers a range of leadership development opportunities. These include the award winning Career Academy which is the only one of its kind in Hackney and comprises paid internships, mentoring, business trips and guru lectures. Other leadership development opportunities include our partnerships with UCL and ReachOut; a volunteering charity, giving our sixth formers every opportunity to gain those crucial leadership skills in and out of the classroom. In 2015, Haggerston Sixth Form students achieved excellent results, with almost half of A level grades at A*-B, more than 70% at A*-C, and many students going on to accept places at Russell Group universities.

If you would like to join a sixth form with high levels of student satisfaction based on good relationships with teaching staff, high quality teaching and learning and excellent academic progress then we look forward to receiving your application.
