one sixth form college
Ipswich
I have the privilege of leading the talented teaching staff and managers that
our students encounter in their lessons each day. If you choose to study here
you will have made an excellent decision, our superb teachers are one of the
reasons that we have been an outstanding college for many years. We are lucky to
have their fantastic expertise and I am sure that you will enjoy learning with
them. In the first instance our amazing building and our fantastic facilities
will certainly impress you; but you will quickly discover that more importantly
we are a very friendly community and that we value each individual. The college
has a happy and purposeful atmosphere, and there is a real sense of partnership
between students and staff. Please contribute to college life and enjoy its many
opportunities. We will enrich your subjects with trips, visits, fieldwork, “live
projects” and guest speakers. There will be opportunities for you to participate
in a variety of activities outside of your timetabled lessons too. We underpin
everything we do with our three pillars; Qualifications, Character Strengths and
Connections and we believe that it is through this combination of attributes
that you will succeed and progress to an exciting future career with prospects.
The next two or three years at college is a precious time for you all. I can
vividly remember my time at sixth form and it was transformative. Please make
the best use of your time here, if you show commitment to your learning we can
help everything else to fall into place.
