Alumni
"I loved my time at Collingwood Sixth Form. Throughout Year 12 and Year 13, I received one-to-one support with my university applications and took part in multiple extracurricular opportunities to help boost my personal statement. I especially enjoyed debating, peer mentoring, and providing reading support to younger students. Being part of the Senior Prefect Team also gave me the opportunity to host events for over 1,000 students, as well as organise activities specifically for the Sixth Form. I am now studying Law at the University of Oxford and am really enjoying it so far"

Year 12
"I came from another school and the supervised study in the Sixth Form at Collingwood appealed to me as it allows me to do more work outside of lessons. Teachers here give me more undivided attention and encourage me to do better in my studies."

"I joined the Sixth Form because I knew I would get a lot of support at Collingwood and I would be more comfortable to ask questions and participate in class. I knew the teachers already so had a good relationship established with them rather than having to create new ones."
