Within 6th Form Maths we aim to embed key functional skills so that students are prepared for mathematical challenges in day to day life.

There are a number of pathways that our 6th Form students will have the opportunity to study:

It may also suit those experiencing the workplace for the first time that need to develop employability skills.
