Hear from Sixth Form Girls

"The support and encouragement girls provide for each other throughout Sixth Form and the breadth of extra-curricular offered for large groups of people is really special."

Deborah, Boarder

"The music department is amazing and includes both contemporary and classical music for everyone to enjoy. The music rooms are great fun to practice in with friends."

Olivia, Boarder

"The amount of freedom we get as Sixth Formers that is just right to prepare us for university."

"I value the support the school gives through adversity you are trying to overcome and I would also shout about the sports St Cat’s offers, we have the best sports staff."

Georgia, Boarder

"I really like how many opportunities there are in Sixth Form to take on roles of responsibility. Everyone gets some kind of leadership/prefect role and there are further opportunities within the house and boarding. Everyone really comes into their own and it is such a good way to develop and grow as a person."

Georgina, Boarder

"Sixth Form in The 6 is a really warm and friendly environment, where you can form friendships and socialise with girls across both year groups."

Phoebe, Day girl

"I have really grown thanks to my leadership roles in Sixth Form, such as House Captain, lacrosse team captain and D of E mentor. It has helped me improve my confidence and public speaking and made me feel so much more involved with life at school."
