Sixth Form Life
Find out more about day-to-day life in the Sixth Form including dress code, independent study, and enrichment opportunities.
Sixth Form life at HGS is defined by our values of respect, responsibility and excellence. For our Sixth Form students, embracing opportunity also underpins your time with us.
As a Sixth Form student, we give you a high degree of independence and the freedom to shape an experience that reflects your ambition, interests and future plans. With that independence comes an expectation of maturity, commitment and personal accountability. This mirrors the demands of higher education and employment, and provides you with the skills and attributes needed for a happy and successful life.
We are committed to providing the support structures and resources you need to succeed. Our specialist subject teachers, dedicated Sixth Form facilities, and strong systems ensure that help, support and guidance are always available. At the same time, you are expected to engage fully with your studies, manage your time effectively, and take increasing ownership of your academic progress.
Sixth Form life also includes a broader programme of enrichment and personal development. These opportunities allow you to extend your learning beyond the classroom, develop wider skills, and gain perspective on the world around you. In addition, our Pathway programme will enhance your experience by providing access to career-specific talks, visits, and educational opportunities.
HGS Sixth Form is designed to help you become the person you aspire to be. We are both academically focused and forward-looking, providing the framework, challenge and support you need to move confidently towards the next stage of your education and future career.
