Sixth Form

RBA Sixth Form is a vibrant community of students and teachers committed to achieving excellence in everything we do.  Our Sixth Form is open to any student who reaches our entrance criteria regardless of where they live or which school they have attended. Sixth Form students have full access to a wide range of courses and enrichment opportunities. We offer a range of Level 3 academic qualifications courses together with other Level 3 vocational subjects. The advantage of being a smaller sixth form is that class sizes are smaller meaning there is more of an individual and personalised teaching approach.

Whether you are wishing to pursue a career in medicine, law or architecture, want to be an actor or artist, or wish to pursue sport and science, we have the expertise, facilities and knowledge to help you.

Sixth Form students play a unique and valuable role in the school, contributing actively to the wider life of the school community. They arrange and run events with younger students, demonstrating tremendous leadership and motivation. The Head Girl, Head Boy and Senior Prefects play a particularly key role in school life and competition is fierce for these positions of responsibility.

You should be able to find out a lot of information about the sixth form and how to apply for a place through the following sections and we look forward to meeting you at our admissions events in the near future.

If you wish to find out more about our Sixth Form, please contact me at the school.
