Sixth Form
We are determined that every student who attends Bedford Academy Sixth Form is nurtured to reach their full potential in a culture of ambition and respect, where no one gets left behind. The Bedford Academy Sixth Form experience will prepare you for the challenges you cannot yet see or define in a rapidly changing world.
We believe that our Sixth Form students will be among the leaders of tomorrow and therefore we will provide a personalised curriculum based on skills and values that encourage thinking, creativity, teamwork and leadership. We want you to think for yourself and about others, to be able to challenge yourself and make good judgements, to believe in yourself and your capacity to realise your dreams.
A dedicated and talented team of dynamic staff will be on hand to enrich your time as Sixth Form students; they are committed to helping you and providing the very best learning opportunities. At Bedford Academy you will learn how to think, you will understand the values of integrity and hard work and recognise your part in our global community.
