Life in the Sixth Form at Highsted Grammar is rich, varied, and full of opportunity. Alongside the academic focus of A-level study, students enjoy an engaging and well-rounded experience that supports their academic growth, personal development, and social wellbeing. Our aim is to provide an environment in which students feel challenged, supported, and inspired throughout their time with us.
Academic excellence remains at the centre of Sixth Form life, with students encouraged to develop independence, curiosity, and confidence in their studies. Beyond the classroom, a wide range of leadership opportunities – such as roles within the Head Girl Team, House Captains, and the running of student societies – allow students to take on responsibility and make a meaningful contribution to the wider school community.
The social life of the Sixth Form is equally important. Throughout the year, students can take part in a range of enjoyable activities including quiz nights, film evenings, bowling trips, and visits to the theatre. These events help to foster a sense of community, offering opportunities to relax, make friends, and create lasting memories alongside academic commitments.
Together, these elements create a vibrant, supportive, and enriching Sixth Form environment – one that encourages students to stretch themselves academically while also growing as confident, well-rounded young people ready for the challenges and opportunities ahead.
