WELCOME TO TOWERS SIXTH FORM
About us
Towers Sixth Form is a thriving environment in which to learn and develop as a young adult. With over 200 students studying a wide range of subjects over the course of 2 years, Towers Sixth Form aims to generate a bespoke timetable to suit the needs of each individual in order to prepare them for the next phase of their education or entry into the workplace. Towers Sixth Form is a very popular choice for students from other schools and colleges who settle quickly, make friends and succeed in their studies. At Towers Sixth Form our students are prepared for further education, with a high percentage progressing to University. Where the workplace is the chosen path, support is at hand to ensure a smooth and successful transition.
We offer a range of A Level and BTEC courses as well as Level 2 and GCSE Maths and English. At Towers Sixth Form students have an increased amount of independent study time, giving them greater responsibility for shaping their own future. Each student will also have an enrichment programme scheduled around their lessons in order to enhance study and gain further life skills. We will work closely with you and support you in achieving your goals. We have a full time dedicated team who will assist you with applying to University via UCAS as well as securing you apprenticeships and work placements.
We look forward to welcoming you to Towers Sixth Form. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us on 01233 634171 or email 6th@towers.school
