THS Sixth Form Fact File – Teesside High School
Thursday 13 June 2024 | By System AdminTHS Sixth Form offers personalised learning in an inspirational setting. We have a track record of high achievement and our specialist staff aim to raise students’ expectations and turn aspirations into reality.
THS Sixth Form students excel in a wide range of subjects whilst developing essential life skills through exceptional co-curricular opportunities and bespoke university and career application support. We have the expertise to help students prepare for the transition from Sixth Form to university and beyond and realise how important it is for our students to be workplace ready. We support students in finding suitable work experience and placements as well as guiding them through every stage of the university application process.
We offer students over five hours’ of teacher contact time, the highest level amongst our competitors. In recent years, Sixth Form qualifications have become increasingly rigorous and demand the very highest level of independent study. We therefore combine academic lessons with a small number of study periods, overseen by teaching staff, offering the perfect blend of support.
