See why learning is about more than exams and textbooks. Dudley Sixth doesn’t
believe in spoon-feeding learners with information or teaching them merely to
pass examinations. Of course exam success is vital to your onward career at
university or work, but so is the ability to think for yourself, to question
norms and to explore the ideas that grab your interest. Thought-provoking
discussions – rather than textbooks and lectures – can help to inspire a
lifelong love of learning in us all. At Dudley Sixth we aim to nurture
generations of inquiring minds. To help you thrive in your studies, we have
created an environment that is happy, warm and supportive. We will celebrate
your successes and encourage you to be the best you can possibly be. Feel
respected and nurtured in a place that is welcoming to all. When you choose
Dudley Sixth, you’re here because you want to be, not because you have to be.
Our teaching staff are delighted about that and will naturally reward your
maturity by treating you as an adult. In return, we expect you to take
responsibility for your learning, behaviour and attendance – and to show respect
for the education you and your fellow learners are being offered by attending
every lesson on time. Dudley Sixth issues essential textbooks on extended loan
to all learners but you will be expected to provide your own stationery.
Naturally, teachers will expect you to be properly equipped for every lesson and
to have done your homework! All learners will be assessed at end of first year
for satisfactory academic progress and conduct before being enrolled on to the
second year.
