Helen Smith

As the only institution in Bedford to focus solely on sixth form study, our students achieve excellent results and you’ll benefit from our specialist expertise.

In 2021 our students achieved a 96% pass rate and a high percentage went on to the university destination of their choice, including many prestigious Russell Group institutions such as Cambridge and Oxford. Building further on our previous success, in 2021 our proportion of high grades increased again to 60% achieving A*-B, enabling even more of our students to get into their first choice university.

Our teachers are not only subject specialists but experts in teaching 16-19 year olds, so you will benefit from their focused knowledge and experience. What’s more, our beautiful period building offers you a legacy of great education combined with the latest modern facilities, which will further develop your academic performance.

We are confident that if you join us you will not only make new friends, enjoy your time and learn new things, but you will achieve great things. Be inspired by reading profiles from our students throughout this prospectus and see pages 10- 11 for a list of our students’ recent university
destinations.

Our Open Days are the perfect opportunity to see what we can offer you, please see page 4 for a list of dates. I look forward to meeting you soon.
