Our Sixth Form

As role models for our younger pupils, our Sixth Form students are the pride of our college.

We have developed a thriving Sixth Form community who contribute widely to our college community. Whilst the majority of our students make the natural progression from our year 11, we have an increasing number of students who have joined from other schools and have quickly settled in to Sixth Form at EPC.

Our Sixth form is large enough to offer a wide range of level 3 courses but small enough to ensure that pupils get bespoke support as they move towards the next stage of their education, employment or training. We are able to fully support each and every one of our students on vital part of their academic journey. We pride ourselves on the pastoral care we offer and the fact that every individual student is well known to the sixth form team: we know our pupils’ strengths, aspirations and individual needs are and work together with subject teachers and leaders to ensure that all pupils meet their potential.

We are incredibly proud that an increasing number of our students are progressing to Universities and high-quality further training. We have had previous successful applications for medicine and pupils this year applying for both medicine and Oxbridge.

We offer a wide-range of extra-curricular opportunities including roles as anti-bullying and library ambassadors, literacy and numeracy buddies and extra-curricular PE. We also support pupils with  super-curricular opportunities such as: enrolment on Keele University’s Steps2Medicine programme; Bank of America Employee Readiness Programme; Youth Senate; Sutton Trust University Summer Schools and online work experience; online MOOCs and subject-specific enrichment opportunities.
