Welcome and thank
you for your interest in
Leicester High.
Every Sixth Form is different. You will know what you are
looking for, but making a decision is never easy, so let me
outline what we offer here.
We are a small Sixth Form, which means there are
more opportunities to stand out; this builds confidence
and helps with university applications. Being an all girls’
School means there is a good work ethic and a calm
atmosphere. There are small classes, so everyone has
lots of attention and there is time for questions, which is
no doubt a key factor in our consistently excellent A level
results. The School, when recently inspected, was found to
be ‘Excellent’ across the board. We have a full-time Nurse
and small Tutor groups, so staff know students very well;
this means we can give outstanding emotional support too.
The Head of Sixth Form and our Tutors take you carefully
through every step of the university application process,
helping you to choose the right course in the right place -
ready to start the next stage of your life.
Come and meet us, and be part of our success.
Alan Whelpdale
Headmaster
The Sixth Form
The Sixth Form is not only the most important two years of your education; it is the
best two years. You get to learn about the subjects you love in more detail, whilst
developing into the young woman you want to become. It is the time where you
look to the future and make important decisions about your next steps in life.
At Leicester High we provide the stability, supportive atmosphere and expertise
for you to achieve your potential academically, whilst preparing you for life at
university and beyond.
Mrs Danielle Solly
Head of Sixth Form
