The sixth form is …fun, enjoyable, interesting, rewarding, lots of fun but hard work, a gateway to university and employment
![Page 19: St. Martin’s School Sixth Form](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022012603/6198fbc22f1c2b730460b791/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Sixth Form life requires independent learning, hard work and organisation. It is the realisation of how life is..Sixth form is
very different to Year 11. You
have a lot more freedom and
responsibility for your own learning. You get treated
like an adult.
What do students say about the Sixth Form at St. Martin’s School?
![Page 20: St. Martin’s School Sixth Form](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022012603/6198fbc22f1c2b730460b791/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
It’s like school but with different clothes and the teachers treat you like you are older
Being in the sixth form is
interesting and challenging as it
allows for greater
independence and self management.
![Page 21: St. Martin’s School Sixth Form](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022012603/6198fbc22f1c2b730460b791/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Sixth form is hard work but enjoyable if
you balance your priorities. It’s
somewhere where everyone knows each
other and you broaden your horizons by working hard and
enjoying each moment
