Sixth Form

We would like to invite you to the SIXTH FORM at Tadcaster Grammar School’s OPEN EVENING on 10th October to discover why we’re the Sixth Form for you. To help with planning and catering, please register your interest by clicking here, thank you!

Tadcaster Grammar School has a large and thriving Sixth Form where many students choose to enrol to extend their studies post-16.

Students in the Sixth Form have their own designated tutors during tutor time, to provide individual mentoring as well as delivering careers advice, Personal Social Health Education (PSHE)and Spiritual, Moral, Social and Cultural Education (SMSC) activities. They are also encouraged to support younger students by acting as mentors and fulfilling leadership roles.

The Sixth Form has a designated suite of rooms in the Sixth Form building for private study, with both classrooms and IT suites to further advance their studies – as well as specialist tutors, Sixth Form students are supported by the Director of Sixth Form, Pastoral Lead for Sixth Form and a Careers Manager.

To ensure we have up to date information about all our students, and to ensure we offer the most appropriate support, we ask that all students complete a Student Record Form. Please click here to complete this form.

Naturally, we are very proud of the achievements of our Sixth Form students, the majority of whom gain places at University as well as progressing directly into employment and apprenticeships.

Sixth Form courses offer both continuity and variety for our students as well as new and bespoke opportunities. We provide:

• A familiar, purposeful environment
