We aim to ensure that Norlington 6th form continues the high standards of teaching, learning, and personal development that our students have become accustomed to. As a school 6th form, we can continue to provide supportive, strong relationships, care, and structure whilst understanding that our students will require a sense of freedom and responsibility, as they begin their journey into adulthood.
Norlington 6th form should be the natural progression for most of our Year 11s who have grown and developed during their time here. Norlington 6th Form should also be the choice for ambitious young people currently attending other schools who now wish to join one of the most improved schools in the local and wider community. All students will benefit from our personalized approach to Teaching and Learning.
The Norlington Family provides a platform for all to be successful and their commitment to stay or join us will ensure that it continues to provide this support for the next stage of their academic journey.
