“Students studying at our popular Sixth Form are encouraged and supported to be forward-thinking, confident and motivated young people, who are ready to make their mark at university, in the world of work, and within wider society.

“As always, we are looking forward to watching what our 2024 cohort goes on to accomplish next, as they join our strong alumni network of former students who have achieved highly after their studies at Beths.”

Beths’ Sixth Form is well known for its broad curriculum offer, with 30 subjects for students to choose from.

The school’s approach extends to providing careers, work experience and university programmes; nurturing talents and passions, including through sporting teams and performing arts clubs, as well as there being an abundance of opportunities to proudly represent and shape the school via student leadership teams, supportive house systems, and fundraising and volunteering initiatives.
