Sixth Form (Year 12 and Year 13)

We believe that your Sixth Form years should be the most engaging and fulfilling of your time at school. You form firmer friendships, you sharpen your focus on areas of genuine academic interest, and you begin the task of discovering where life will take you once you leave the structured framework of a school environment.

Our Sixth Form provides a stimulating, innovative and friendly environment where pupils have every opportunity to flourish. We pride ourselves on our excellent teaching; high levels of academic challenge; outstanding pastoral care and sound careers advice and guidance.

A curriculum that prepares you for the future

In the Sixth Form, most pupils will take three A-levels over the two years. The A-level ensures pupils develop a mastery of several complementary or contrasting subject areas, whilst allowing them also to pursue options in areas of strong personal interest. All of our A-level subjects are taught by specialist teachers who have a passion for the topic and who are there to support you as you make your choices for university and beyond. The A-levels' combination of rigour and specialism makes it an ideal preparation both for university and working life.

A-level results

Our Sixth Form numbers have grown year-on-year, with many pupils coming to the College to ensure their final two years of school produce the results that allow them to realise their university ambitions.

Achievement and innovation

A-levels are far from the only way in which intellectual development is encouraged. Subjects run extension programmes and pupils can choose to participate in a variety of academic societies. The Extended Project Qualification is a central feature of our Sixth Form offer for all pupils and we believe that it provides an unparalleled opportunity for pupils to develop essential academic and presentation skills for higher education as well as a chance to experience the love of learning for its own sake in an area of personal interest.

 EmSATs

Pupils wishing to apply for university courses in the United Arab Emirates (all public universities and some private universities) are now required to sit Emirates Standardised Assessment Tests in English, Arabic, Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, Biology and Computer Science at the end of the Lower Sixth. If you are not studying these subjects at A-level we will do our best to provide you with the necessary encouragement and support although a strong performance at GCSE will normally be sufficient preparation. 

Ministry of Education Arabic and Islamic Studies

Sitting the full MOE course and the final examinations is advised only for those pupils seeking the UAE High School Equivalency diploma.
