Student-Led Extracurriculars
Student-led initiatives are incredibly popular in the Sixth Form as students are keen to take on extra responsibility within the school community. Students actively participate in leadership development programs, holding positions of responsibility within the School Council and serving as Peer Mentors. This not only cultivates a sense of community but also provides a platform for students to shape the extracurricular narrative, ensuring it resonates with their unique interests.
In our Sixth Form, leadership isn't just a concept; it's a hands-on experience. Students can actively contribute to the school's decision-making processes through positions in the School Council, honing crucial leadership and communication skills. This emphasis on leadership extends beyond the classroom, preparing students for future roles in university and beyond.
Specialized Clubs for Personal Growth
Our lunchtime and after school specialized clubs are designed for personal growth and exploration while allowing students the flexibility to pursue their passions around their studies. Whether it's the intricacies of Electronics, the creativity of Film Making, or the physical challenges of Cross Fit, our clubs cater to a spectrum of interests. These specialized offerings are avenues for students to discover and nurture their passions, contributing to a well-rounded education.
If you are looking to embark on a journey of self-discovery, leadership, and passion, St Chris Sixth Form is the place for you. Join us in creating memorable experiences that go beyond the classroom, shaping not just academic success but a well-rounded future for every student.
