Our Sixth Form

Your Future. Your Journey. Your Choice.

When you join Chase High Sixth Form, your future is what you make of it. We are committed to providing every student with a clear and ambitious pathway from Key Stage 4 through Post-16 and towards their next destination, whether that is higher education, an apprenticeship, employment or further training.

At Chase High, we believe education is about more than qualifications. We want every student to develop the knowledge, skills, confidence, independence and experiences they need to succeed beyond the classroom. We treat our students as young adults, providing the support, guidance and opportunities they need to take ownership of their future and make informed choices.

Our broad, rich and ambitious curriculum reflects students’ interests, strengths and aspirations. Alongside their studies, Chase High students benefit from strong pastoral care, careers guidance, work experience and opportunities to develop the wider skills valued by employers, universities and training providers.

At Chase High Sixth Form, every student’s journey is different. We provide a supportive and forward-thinking environment where students can explore their potential, develop their ambitions and prepare confidently for their next step.

Whatever your destination, Chase High Sixth Form will help you move forward with confidence, ambition and clarity.

The 16 to 19 Bursary Fund is funding that is ring-fenced for Sixth Form institutions to support students, who would be unable to stay in education without financial help for items such as transport, meals, books and equipment.

All Sixth Form students will also have 40 additional hours in their learning aims across the year to support them to help ensure that gaps in learning caused by disruption to education are bridged. This is aimed at uplifting hours to bring us closer to high performing international comparator countries.

The funding is being used to provide small group tuition for 16- to 19-year olds where their learning has been disrupted and they:

• have not achieved a Grade 6 in GCSE English and/or GCSE Mathematics at age 16, and would need catch-up support;

• are from the 27% most economically deprived areas of the country (based on the index of multiple deprivation), and would need catch-up support;

• are economically disadvantaged, and, therefore, meet the 16 to 19 Bursary Fund eligibility criteria, and would need catch-up support to reach their full potential (even where their prior attainment is high).

Although targeted students are identified based on their prior attainment in English and Mathematics, the funding can be used to support students in their learning across a variety of subjects.

Examples of disruption that these students have faced/will face include assessments being deferred due to lockdown or self-isolation, falling behind in their learning due to long/multiple periods of self-isolation, and not being able to complete external examinations due to positive COVID-19 cases.
