Assistant Headteacher - Sixth Form I am very pleased that you are considering Plantsbrook Sixth Form as an option for your child’s Post-16 Education and hope this prospectus will answer some of your questions. At Plantsbrook we aim to provide the best Sixth Form experience possible by developing the whole person, academically, morally and physically. We set high standards and expect our students to aim to be the best they can be. We offer a supportive, warm and friendly environment which we believe will help inspire and motivate them to succeed and achieve their aspirations. This is the beginning of an exciting journey: two challenging years of study which we hope will provide the reward of higher education, employment and opportunities for our students. Our students will be concentrating on subjects they hold a genuine interest in and enthusiasm for, allowing them to become an expert in their subject area. These two years will be challenging but we support our students every step of the way with a strong pastoral team.
Plantsbrook Sixth Form also focuses on developing our students as individuals. We provide many opportunities to develop social skills, build confidence and allow our students to have a wider sense of responsibility as a young adult. Our compulsory Enrichment Scheme guarantees participation in activities within the school and local community and it allows students to enhance their CV through extracurricular activities which are valued highly by employers and universities. We also provide the opportunity to complete work experience at the end of Year 12, which is vital to enhance their CV and Personal Statements whilst improving their employability prospects. Thank you for considering Plantsbrook Sixth Form. If you have any further questions please do not hesitate to contact me on the email address below. Yours faithfully Mr W Legood Acting Assistant Headteacher – Sixth Form w.legood@plantsbrookschool.co.uk
