Sixth Form
Thinking about the next step Post-16 can be a difficult and stressful time, but is a crucial decision for the young person to take. There are a number of options to consider, including South Devon College, Exeter College, Project Aspire, jobs, apprenticeships, and a number of bespoke opportunities. One exciting opportunity is to apply to stay on and join our Sixth Form, which is now over five years old and has developed a reputation for improving the work-readiness of students, and indeed has been successful at helping students get jobs and apprenticeships on leaving the Sixth Form. These options do not all suit all students, but anyone who is interested will be supported through Careers Education and Guidance to make a decision with which they are comfortable and which is in their best interests. Many students like the continuity of staying on and having the opportunity to embark on a long-term work placement with the support of a Job Coach. Students not yet ready for work enjoy improving their confidence and skills whilst experiencing structured work situations.
