The success of the Sixth Form has led to considerable growth over recent years, which has allowed a significant increase in our course offer with the addition of several BTEC courses. Our most able students study for an Extended Project Qualification (EPQ), in turn, assisting applications to the high-ranking university institutions.
Whilst there is focus on the academic, we firmly believe in developing rounded individuals. Students benefit from a varied enrichment programme that provides opportunities such as volunteering, debating, leadership, charity involvement, sporting activities and our annual Summer Ball. Year 12 prefects are selected at the beginning of the Sixth Form journey and the Sixth Form leadership team help to organise and run the school council which includes organising events for students of all ages.
The Sixth Form at Harlington is a purposeful and supportive place to study. We continually seek to review our provision in order to best serve the needs of a diverse school population. We feel strongly in students undergoing the full ‘Sixth Form experience’ and we hope you will view Harlington as the right place for you.
‘Students make good progress in the sixth form, as a result of effective teaching. Leaders of the sixth form sharply monitor the performance of students, and make improvements to the quality of teaching. They are working well with subject leaders to raise the achievement of individuals. The sixth form is well led.’
