SIXTH FORM
YEAR 12 & 13: KEY STAGE 5
The final two years, 12 and 13, are the pre-University years. SES offers a flexible Advanced Levels (A Levels) programme where students choose between a two, three or four A Level pathway to enable them to reach the University of their choice, depending on their interests and future career plans. A Levels are a two-year internationally recognised programme. All A Level examinations are sat at the end of Year 13 after the full two years of study.
In addition to completing A Levels, students are strongly encouraged to participate in a range of enrichment activities aimed at bolstering their personal profile and equipping them for life after Sixth Form. Students have the opportunity to pursue externally accredited courses such as the EPQ qualification and Ivy House award, engage in MOOCs and essay competitons, attend external lectures and workshops, actively participate in volunteering and take on leadership roles.
Students benefit from a flexible approach to activity selection, ensuring a personalised and we-rounded educational experience. Students also receive dedicated support for university applications, including guidance on personal statements, interview preparation, and navigating the application process to maximise their chances of securing placements at top-tier institutions around the world.
