Welcome to St Paul’s Sixth Form
We’re delighted that you are considering joining our Sixth Form; a vibrant, caring community where young people grow not only in knowledge and skill, but in confidence, purpose, and compassion.
At St Paul’s, we believe education is about so much more than results. It’s about being known as an individual, feeling supported to take risks, and being encouraged to discover who you are and what you can achieve. Every student is valued, respected, and celebrated for their unique gifts and talents.
As a Catholic community, our faith shapes everything we do, from the way we welcome others, to the way we care, learn, and lead. But you don’t have to be Catholic to belong here. Our doors are open to everyone, and our diversity is one of our greatest strengths. You’ll find warmth, kindness, and belonging at the heart of everyday life.
We are proud of our record of academic excellence, with students consistently achieving outstanding results and progressing to top universities, apprenticeships, and careers. Yet, just as importantly, they leave us as confident, compassionate young adults ready to make a difference in the world.
In our Sixth Form, you’ll be taught in smaller groups, given more independence, and trusted to take ownership of your learning. We’ll challenge you to stretch yourself, and we’ll support you every step of the way, because your success matters deeply to us.
We invite you to come and experience St Paul’s for yourself, at our Open Evening, or by arranging a personal visit. When you walk through our doors, you’ll feel the warmth, care, and energy that make this place special.

Our Sixth Form is long-established, with a strong tradition of excellence and opportunity. Since moving to our modern campus in 2004, we’ve continued to invest in bright, purpose-built spaces that support 21st-century learning and personal growth.
At St Paul’s, you’ll find:
- Exceptional teaching and results across A Levels, BTECs, and combined pathways.
- A strong sense of community and care, where everyone is known and supported.
- A wide range of enrichment opportunities, from sports and performing arts to work experience, volunteering, and leadership.
This balance of high ambition and personal support is what makes our Sixth Form so distinctive, and why our students love being here.

Our Ethos and Values
Our mission is simple: to help every student flourish, academically, personally, and spiritually, making the most of their God-given gifts and talents.
Everything we do is built on the Gospel values of faith, hope, and love. These guide our relationships, our learning, and our shared life as a community.
We want every student to feel that their education here is better, richer, and more empowering than it could be anywhere else, because it is rooted in care, respect, and belief in each individual.
Students at St Paul’s enjoy the perfect balance of academic challenge and personal growth, supported by teachers and peers who want the best for them. Parents can trust that their child will be encouraged, guided, and inspired every step of the way.
I thought about leaving, but I realised no one else would care about me the way St Paul’s does. Here, I’m not starting over, I’m moving forward.
