Sixth Form Open Evening 2024

At Bridgewater School Sixth Form our aim is to help students to develop a real sense of who they are and exactly what they can achieve, through the exceptional focus and support that we give to every individual.

In summer 2024, Sixth Form students once again secured a 100% pass rate at A-level. A remarkable 40% of all grades were at the highest level of A*-B and students will now embark on exciting journeys to prestigious institutions such as Lancaster University, the University of Leeds and the University of Sheffield, to study Law, International History and Politics, and English Literature, while Higher Level apprenticeships have also remained a popular choice. However, at Bridgewater we pride ourselves not only on our students’ results, but also on the close personal attention and one-to-one guidance they receive. It is this focus, together with the support of small tutor groups, that enables virtually every student to secure a place at their first choice university or higher level apprenticeship.

If you feel that you son or daughter would flourish in a more nurturing and individual environment, then we invite you to join us for our Sixth Form Open Evening between 6pm and 8pm on Thursday 26th September 2024 when you will have the opportunity to find out everything that Bridgewater Sixth Form has to offer and for us to give guidance and advice on the next best steps for your child.

The evening will commence with a short presentation at 6pm and will be followed by the opportunity to visit individual ‘subject stalls’ on a more informal basis, where teaching staff will be available to discuss decisions about A-level choices, alternative courses and future careers.

For further information, please email admin@bwslive.co.uk or call 0161 794 1463.

At Bridgewater, they do everything they can to ensure we achieve our full potential, both academically and personally.
