SCHOOL HIGHLIGHT: BOHUNT SIXTH FORM

Bohunt Sixth Form celebrated its first set of results during the summer, with 100% EPQ students gaining an A* grade. Continuing its successful streak, the Sixth Form welcomed its largest cohort of Y12 this September. Sixth Form life is busy and engaging, and just a couple of this term’s highlights are outlined below:

ASPECTS OF TRAGEDY - LITERATURE LECTURES AT THE EMMANUEL CENTRE, LONDON

Year 12 & 13 English Literature students attended a series of lectures on the topic of Tragedy, both as a genre studied in its own right and to explore the tragic aspects of some of their set texts for the Literature exam. Speakers included the chief examiner for AQA, Jon Birch as well as esteemed actor and director Nick Hutchins. The perspectives they offered enabled students to consider the texts and this genre in new ways, inspiring them to further develop their own critical interpretations of the texts.

Epq At Bohunt Sixth Form

Dr Becki Nash from the University of Southampton visited Bohunt Sixth Form on Friday 16th November to support students who have chosen to complete an Extended Project Qualification in Year 12. She delivered a lecture on research methods, giving advice on how to begin and research effectively, including how to develop critical reading skills. Dr Nash also met with some students in small seminar groups to give feedback on their proposed titles and personalised advice to help them navigate their next steps in their research journey.
