The College has had a co-educational Sixth Form of some 200 boys and girls since 1967 where entry is based on GCSE results and interview. Twenty-five Advanced Level courses are offered across a wide spectrum of the Arts and Sciences together with several Advanced Supplementary courses. Excellent results, particularly at A/B grades ensure that most students progress to Higher Education, including Oxford and Cambridge.

There is a variety of societies and activities, including music, debating and drama, based in a thriving community with a family spirit and progressive openness to develop. One of the most worthwhile activities is the opportunity to meet and learn from the elderly, disabled and terminally sick; many give of their time in this way with many more participating in the Duke of Edinburgh's Award Scheme.
