Sixth Form
In 1999 a new sixth form block, the Peggy Saxby Suite, was opened, with a large common room, a silent study area and several classrooms. This has recently changed and the common room is now home to a large silent study, the Independent Learning Centre, and the silent study has been transformed into a music technology room. During study periods, pupils must stay in the Independent Learning Centre. The common room is now in the Mary Matthews Studio. The sixth form now includes a number of male pupils from other schools. The current year twelve has the largest number of male pupils the school has ever seen.
