Mission Statement
Our school is a private education centre, which offers an alternative to large mainstream schools.
​
Our aim is to provide an environment which is conducive to independent learning, in line with U.K. educational philosophy of constructivism and methodologies based on blended learning; a place where students are engaged and inspired.
​
As a multi-denominational, co-educational school, we encourage all our students to achieve their full potential, both educationally and personally.
​
We do this by creating a caring and happy environment, where our dedicated teachers can give expert, individual attention to all students, across the widest range of subjects available anywhere on the coast.
Ethos
Most schools restrict a student's choice of subjects by placing them into option blocks. At Emerald Sixth Form, we focus on providing the subjects which the students want to study.
​
We have hugely experienced teachers from a range of international backgrounds, who can inspire our students to perform beyond their expectations in very small classes, normally 1 to 10 or often fewer.
​
Our students benefit from
-
constant academic mentoring​.
-
continuous pastoral care.
-
study skill seminars.
-
information literacy sessions.
-
extra English language from our TEFL teacher.

2024 Graduation Ceremony
At midday, the students of Year 11 and 13, their families and the staff of the school all gathered at Emerald for the 2024 Graduation Ceremony. It was a wonderful celebration of two years of hard work by everyone concerned, as the students complete one stage of their young lives, leaving them poised to embark on the next. Whether that is returning to sit A Levels in September, going on to university or college, or entering directly into the workforce, we at Emerald Sixth Form wish the Class of '24 Farewell and Good Luck!
