Above and Beyond in Sixth Form
Hello and welcome to the Sixth Form pages of the Above and Beyond platform. If you are reviewing this page, you are already heading in the right direction in managing your own development and preparedness for the year ahead. The years of 12 and 13 come with their own challenges when studying the IB and the more you are able to prepare for now, the more settled you will feel when the new term begins. We have created a website for students entering Year 12 in August and another for students entering Year 13, with some bespoke guidance for both.
