Sixth Form Open Evening – September Intake 2017

A Welcome from Mrs J Diaz, Principal

Dear Student

Your Sixth Form choices are very important so it is vital that you take the time to consider what the appropriate pathway is for you. This evening is designed to enable you to make informed

choices about which subjects are appropriate for you. You have the opportunity to see

presentations on subjects you are considering, learn about the course content and method of

assessment and speak to teachers about what the course entails. We hope you find the evening

useful and are available to answer your questions throughout the evening.

Mrs J Diaz

Principal, Holcombe Grammar School

For Your Information ……

The majority of students will follow a curriculum that consists of three A-Levels although some students

may wish to study four subjects. All students wishing to include Mathematics in their options MUST

choose four subjects.

You will be able to attend a maximum of four subject presentations this evening plus the Principal’s Talk. We recommend that you take full advantage of the subject presentations in order to get a clear

understanding of the content, assessment and requirements of each course you may wish to undertake.

We are fortunate to have members of the Victory Academy staff present this evening to discuss the

numerous vocational courses they have on offer and which can be taken alongside our A-Level

programme within the TSAT collaboration of schools within Medway.
