Welcome to Lowestoft Sixth
We hope you are able to find the information you want from this site (please use the admin e-mail should you want any specific information: admin@lowestoftsixth.com). If you are a member of Benjamin Britten High School, Denes High School or Kirkley High School and wish to claim your free data stick you will need to complete the on-line Post 16 Survey; this goes live from the 19th November 2007 (after this date just click the appropriate link above and follow the instructions).
This site is run and maintained by students of the Lowestoft Sixth. The site was developed to allow students to share ideas and resources in a secure environment, therefore some areas of the site you will not be able to access unless you are a member of the Lowestoft Sixth.
The Lowestoft Sixth links Benjamin Britten High School, Denes High School and Kirkley High School, bringing together 16 to 19 year olds from Lowestoft and the surrounding area. As it combines the best from the established institutions, the Lowestoft Sixth can offer a large variety of one and two-year courses, excellent guidance and support and highly experienced staff. Expertise and resources are pooled across all three schools with free transport available between the sites, allowing easy access to an impressive range of facilities.
As a student of the Lowestoft Sixth, you will have the opportunity to choose from a wide range of courses. We offer one and two year courses, both of which can involve vocational qualifications. Advanced Level (A Level) are divided into two equal parts: the AS (Advanced Subsidiary) and the A2. The AS is achieved at the end of the first year of study and you can turn this into an A2 by continuing the subject into the second year. The Lowestoft Sixth also offers Level 2 and Level 3 broad-based vocational qualifications designed to allow you flexibility in progressing onto higher education or further training for employment.
Over and above the academic and vocational courses we offer, we also provide an extensive enrichment programme known as 'The Wednesday Afternoon Project' (WAP). WAP offers limitless opportunities for students to develop their social relationships and gain qualifications which will support them with their applications to further education or employment - and above all, it's fun!
