A BEHIND THE SCENES LOOK...

During the pandemic we were unable to show new students around our Sixth Form and so produced this video to give people a flavour of life in our Sixth Form.

We are looking forward to meeting prospective students in person this year, however thought that many of you would still find the video valuable.
