Virtual Open Event for Sixth Form (2021 entry)
We have prepared the following recorded resources for both our current Year 11 students and those who are considering joining us in Year 12. We hope that you will be able to put aside an hour to find out about studying at TWGSB in the Sixth Form and to watch the subject presentations for those that you might be interested in studying at A Level.
We recommend that you:
- Start by watching the 'Making Informed Choices' presentation below from Headteacher Ms Simpson, Deputy Head Ms McCullagh and Assistant Head Mrs Fernandez plus current students.
- Watch the subject presentations below to find out about the individual courses we offer at TWGSB.
- Read our FAQs.
- Refer to our prospectus for detailed information about life at TWGSB6.
- Finish by exploring the other aspects of Sixth Form at TWGSB, as per the links below to the school website.
We are sorry that we could not meet you in person this year at an open event. We are very proud of the Sixth Form experience that we offer, the range of courses and of course the students themselves. We hope that these resources will give you a sense of what we can offer your son/daughter.
If you have any further queries about our Sixth Form, please do not hesitate to contact the Sixth Form team via email: thegrammarschool@twgsboys.kent.sch.uk.
