Catholic Secondary School

St Thomas More Sixth Form prides itself on offering a wide choice of academic, vocational and extra-curricular opportunities for all its students.

Appropriate programmes are designed for students in consultation with tutors and careers staff. Year 12 students follow a course of three or four A Levels/Level 3 BTEC courses, in addition to a PSHE slot once per half term.

All students are expected to complete The Extended Project Qualification in Year 12. Many students also study the Certificate in Financial Studies in Year 13. High levels of achievement are expected and attained. All students must complement academic studies with a well-rounded programme of enrichment, from volunteering to sporting activities.

Please find below a detailed guide for the courses on offer at St Thomas More Sixth Form.
