A Level Subjects at King Henry VIII School
In this section
The Sixth Form is a vibrant and dynamic environment where pupils enjoy their learning and are encouraged to work hard to achieve their goals. We balance strong academic support with increasing student independence, developing the skills that will be needed for successful A level grades but also in life beyond school. We also balance academic achievement with co-curricular opportunity, to provide a holistic approach that maximises potential.
Students leave the Sixth Form with strong intellectual characteristics such as leadership, confidence, humility and aspiration. The outcomes are amazing! Results are excellent and our students go on to attend the very best universities. I am proud of each one of our students as they leave and move to the next stage of their life feeling proud of their School and well prepared for the challenges ahead.
