Sixth Form (AGES 16–18)
WHAT ARE AS & A LEVELS?
AS and A Levels form a rigorous, internationally respected two-year pathway for students in Years 12 and 13.
Students typically focus on three or four subject disciplines, exploring each in depth while developing the independence, analytical skills and academic confidence needed for higher education.
Alongside academic studies, Queen's Sixth Form students benefit from three important dimensions of the experience:
01
ACADEMIC DEPTH
Focused study enables students to develop deep knowledge and understanding in the subjects that best reflect their strengths, interests and aspirations.
02
PERSONALISED GUIDANCE
A dedicated Careers Advisor works with every student to explore university pathways and career ambitions, including subject selection and university applications.
03
ENRICHMENT & LEADERSHIP
Students can take part in co-curricular, enrichment and leadership opportunities that develop independence, global awareness and character.
Together, these elements prepare students for university, meaningful careers and life beyond education.
