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.

School Games Afternoon
The now-traditional event, a bonding session for all students at the start of a new school year, took place down at the beach this afternoon.
Teams of mixed years played each other at volleyball and soccer in the afternoon sunshine.
All good fun and the new students got a chance to interact with the rest of the school in an informal manner.
