Sixth Form At A School
You can apply to study your A-levels or BTECs at any of the local schools that have sixth forms. Below are links to some of the popular local choices:
Sixth Form College
Sixth Form Colleges tend to be much bigger than school sixth forms. They also offer a wider range of A-levels and also offer some vocational courses (BTECs). You can choose to study 3 A-levels, 3 BTECs or a combination of the two e.g. 2 A-levels and 1 BTEC. St Brendan's is the Sixth Form College for our region. It is a single site college just for 16 to 18 year olds.
FE Colleges
Further Education (FE) Colleges are attended by people of all ages, they are large colleges that specialise in vocational courses (BTECs, T-levels, etc). Some also offer A-levels. Below are links to the local FE colleges:
