Thursday 14^th November 2024
3:30 pm - 7:00 pm

The Sixth Form at Samuel Whitbread Academy will be hosting an open evening for Year 11 students (internal and external) and their families on Thursday 14^th November 2024 from 3.30 pm – 7.00 pm. At the open evening, prospective students, parents, and carers can speak with staff and students in each course that is on offer. A live presentation from Mr Huckle,  Associate Principal – Head of Sixth Form, will take place at 4.00pm, 5.00pm, 6.00pm and 6.30pm in the theatre. The open afternoon/evening will be based in the main hall and street with course/department areas running stalls so students/parents/carers can speak with staff and sixth form students. We feel it is important you hear from the students on each course alongside speaking to the course leaders at the open evening.

Each year the Sixth Form welcomes students from SWA and other schools due to our outstanding Sixth Form facilities, expert teaching and a wide range academic and enrichment options.

There is no requirement to ‘book’ a place, but we will ask all students/parents to sign-in on arrival. Internal students will sign in at the PRE sign-in table, then there will be a separate table for external students/parents to sign-in.

We will also be offering individual tours for external students after the open evening, so if you would like to book a tour, please contact swa-sixthformadmissions@bestacademies.org.uk.

We are extremely proud of all students who progress through our Sixth Form.  If you would like to take a look at where some of our Sixth Form students have ended up, please take a look at our alumni page.

All information on Sixth Form admissions, entry requirements and courses can be found under our Applications & Admissions page.
