The John Fisher School Sixth Form welcomes applications from boys of all faiths or none from other schools.
The John Fisher School offers a wide range of courses at A Level and BTEC, complemented by an extensive offer of enrichment activities. Students at the John Fisher School perform extremely well at A Level and BTEC, and the vast majority of students progress to higher education with many students going on to study at Russell Group universities.
In addition to our nationally recognised excellence in sport and music, students can enhance their learning through the Extended Schools Programme. It is our intention that students leave John Fisher School with as broad an experience as possible during their two years in the Sixth Form.
The Sixth Form offers those students who performed particularly well in the GCSE exams the opportunity to following an accelerated program in maths and science. Similarly high achieveing students are given the opportunity of completing and Extended Project Qualification, which universities see as extremely valuable qualification.
The Sixth Form offers a comprehensive PSHE and tutoring system and we take great pride in guiding students through this very important stage of their education. Additionally, students have the opportunity to take on positions of responsibility and leadership in the Sixth Form.

Please note that any prospective student must follow the above process (where necessary) to secure their place. It is not possible to enrol students virtually and must be done in person. Please ensure your son is available to attend one of the enrolment days in person and be mindful of this when booking any holidays and/or trips away. Any student who does enrol but does not attend the Induction Day, may lose their place at the JFS Sixth Form. Any applications received outside of the above timescales will only be processed if there are spaces remaining. Due to the extremely high volume of emails received in the Summer Break, please assume any late applications made are unsuccessful unless you receive a response from the school to say otherwise.
