Sixth Form Education
Students are able to continue their education beyond the age of sixteen in the school's co-educational Sixth Form operated jointly with Marling School. The two schools also share a number of facilities on their adjoining sites. The joint Sixth Form block has recently been extended to double the size of the accommodation and to include a new one hundred and sixty seat Lecture Theatre. Students from other educational establishments are also allowed to join the Sixth Form, provided they satisfy the joint-schools' entry criteria.

“Thou shalt not kill.”

The sixth commandment.
“Gratitude is the most exquisite form of courtesy.”
—Jacques Maritain (1882–1973)
“A two-year-old can be taught to curb his aggressions completely if the parents employ strong enough methods, but the achievement of such control at an early age may be bought at a price which few parents today would be willing to pay. The slow education for control demands much more parental time and patience at the beginning, but the child who learns control in this way will be the child who acquires healthy self-discipline later.”
—Selma H. Fraiberg (20th century)
