THIS IS YOUR TIMEThis is your moment. This is where all your work over the last five
years comes together. This is your chance to take everything you
have learned, every sport, every subject, every experience, and bring
them together to create your own unique combination of strengths.
Your Sixth Form has been designed to provide the space you need
to extend your learning, refine your skills and develop an unshakeable
confidence in your abilities.
This is your time to show the world what you can do.

“The Sixth Form is good, with
outstanding elements. Growing
rapidly, it offers a broad choice of
courses, encourages aspiration
and fosters independent learning
and personal responsibility.”
Ofsted
SPACE TO LIVE...Boarding is a simply great experience. You will develop the
confidence and independence you will need when you go to
university, get a job or take a gap year.
Living in our ‘stately home’ Gatton Hall, or purpose built Sixth Form
annexes, you will be in the ideal place to prepare yourself for the
future, surrounded by your peers.
Whether a boarder, or non boarder, you can experience the incredible
opportunities provided by a school with 260 acres of parkland,
gardens and sports facilities.
This really is the place where you have the space to grow.

each other it feels like a family”

SPACE TO EXCELYou will discover that we have built an outstanding environment for
independent learning. Teachers have great depth of knowledge and
enthusiasm for their subject and go out of their way to give help and
support whenever it’s needed.
The Bernard Sunley Sixth Form Centre offers three IT suites for you
to use during study periods between timetabled lessons. The ‘break
out’ room is the perfect place for working in small groups or, if you
need to concentrate there are supervised ‘quiet zones’ for more
focused study.
Your workload will be demanding, but achievable, and these facilities
are there to help you make the most of your time academically - but
it’s not ‘all work and no play’. The ‘internet café’ style common room
is the perfect place to chill out with friends and take your mind off
study.
“I think she is lucky to have
teachers who are passionate
about their subject and I know
they are conveying their passion
to my daughter in their teaching.”

TIME TO SHARE...You will make a contribution. As a Sixth Form student you will get
the chance to take on additional responsibilities in the School and in
our boarding community, such as mentoring younger pupils, helping
to run activities and clubs, and lead other school projects such as
fundraising.
You will also get involved in the community action programme and
support real projects in the local community.
These activities are not only fun and rewarding but look great on
your university application!

“I can’t believe how much my
daughter has achieved in a few
short months. Thank you for all
the opportunities being put her
way, she is certainly making the
most of them.”
Parent
MOVING ON...When you start planning for your future in the workplace, at
university or even a gap year, then the ‘destinations’ room has all the
information you need to help you make the best choices.
Inspirational tutors and fantastic facilities are only part of the reason
to come here. The Sixth Form at the Royal Alexandra and Albert
School is your best chance to prove what you can do academically,
physically and socially and offers you the best possible springboard
into adult life.
“Gatton is the place that made
me what I am.”
