You may already know where – or what – you want to be in life. Great. We can help you get there. But if you’re still thinking about it, that’s ok too. We’d like to be part of this giant step with you.
At St Mary Magdalene Academy Sixth Form, we’re confident we can bring out the best in you. We’ll treat you like an adult, guide you at every step, help you achieve your best results, and make sure you enjoy your time here too.

2. We promise to give you the life skills to succeed.
It’s not just about exam results anymore. Every employer or university wants to see the real person behind the results: to find out about you.
Through our network of partners in the UK and overseas, we’ll give you the opportunities and space to develop as an individual – and to create a Personal Statement that will impress.
We promise to take you to see at least one university while you’re in Sixth Form. And we’ll guarantee you a work placement within one of our partner companies.
Our ‘Masterclass’ talks programme will fire your enthusiasm and help you decide where you want to go in life. And our careers coaching will set you safely on your way.
