Welcome

We are very proud of the thriving sixth form of over 270 students we have built and are continuing to build here at Marriotts. We have seen consistently strong attainment outcomes. In 2023, 30% of grades were at A-A* or Distinction-Distinction*, and 63% were at A*-B or Distinction*-Merit. Almost all students have moved onto planned next steps including apprenticeships, employment and 64% have moved onto University, to include Brighton, Kings College London, Leeds, Manchester, Loughborough, Liverpool, Nottingham, Warwick and York to name but a few. We are particularly delighted that Frances Mann secured a place at the University of Brighton to study Medicine. Courses taken include English Literature, Criminology, Psychology, Mathematics, Sports Science, Economics, Neural Engineering, Law, Architecture, Business and Marketing, History, Computer Science, Biological Science, Geography, Physical Education Teaching, Accounting and Finance, Social Work and Media and Communication amongst many others. This emphasises that we fully support students in reaching their chosen next steps, whatever they may be. You can see a full list of 2023 destinations in our Destinations page.

We would urge all of our Year 11s to continue your studies with us and welcome applications from students currently at different schools.

You will have access to a fantastic curriculum, a very strong extended programme of work experience, advice, guidance and activities and most importantly you will be working with staff who know you, know your strengths and know how to support you.

Key features of Marriotts Sixth include bespoke Sixth Form facilities, extensive student support and advice and guidance, high quality lessons taught by experienced staff, and a wide ranging Marriotts Extra programme.

Our last Ofsted Report recognised the Sixth Form as an area of strength and it was graded Good. We continue to build on this, and believe many aspects of our provision to be outsanding.

“Leaders have ensured that students follow appropriate courses that enable them to achieve well. As a result, more students than previously are proceeding to higher education”
