Introduction

The Beaulieu Park 6th form is the final phase of the ‘all through’ school and builds upon the exceptional foundations created through the Primary and Secondary phase. At Beaulieu, we believe that our 6th form is the stepping stone to every student’s future.  

All of our A Level courses are academic. There is a stimulating and dynamic range of subjects available which allows students to pursue their passions, and facilitates entry to the highest quality universities, apprenticeships and school leavers’ programmes. The Extended Project Qualification supports, stretches and challenges our students to give them a wonderful preparation for university style study. 

Students in the 6th form have fun, work hard and make lifelong friendships. They are part of a close-knit community, in which everyone settles quickly and where there is a shared desire to succeed in all they do, and to help and support others. 

Serious study is combined with extensive opportunities for enrichment. Students who leave our 6th form are enthusiastic, well-grounded and versatile young people who are excellently equipped to take their place in and contribute to society. 

In the 6th form we offer our students the opportunity to excel academically, as well as helping them to develop and enhance leadership skills through a range of activities. Obtaining excellent qualifications is fundamental to 6th form life, but this is balanced with the aim of developing essential personal qualities through involvement in activities such as debating, music, sport drama, travel and charitable work. 

This experience takes place in a nurturing and supportive environment where we guide students to help themselves. Students are encouraged to develop intellectual curiosity, to read around their studies and to challenge theory. These essential study skills, alongside time management and organisation, are the qualities that lead to the success that students at Beaulieu enjoy. 

In choosing 6th form subjects, students should not only consider what they enjoy and what they are good at, but also the right combination of subjects for their chosen degree or career. Students should also take into account their predicted grades, and whether they are sufficient to take the study of those specific subjects further. 

To study in the 6th form at Beaulieu, a minimum score of 40 points from your best 8 GCSEs including a minimum of grade 4 in both English and Maths, is required. Visit the admissions  section of our website. In addition, each subject has its own specific entry criteria, the details of which can be found in the 6th form course guide

Students are expected to study three subjects plus EPQ. At Beaulieu, we prioritise quality over quantity. Three A Levels, studied over 10 hours per fortnight each, places our students in the best position for academic success and their next steps. Although no guarantee can be given that every choice of subjects will be accessible, we endeavour to provide most students with their first preferences.
