At King James I Academy we have our own Sixth Form Team who are available to support the transition from Year 11 to Post-16 studies. With a variety of experience in Education and Careers they are well placed to offer advice and find solutions to any issues you may have.

The role of the Sixth Form Team is to provide students with guidance and support in many different areas of their Sixth Form life. This is through providing assistance with work skills, time management and non-educational issues such as housing, financial or social issues.

You will be supported throughout your time in Sixth Form to ensure you have secured the appropriate progression route on completion of your studies. This will be done through individual meetings in order to get to know you personally and in turn, meet your specific needs.

You will be fully supported in regards to things such as revision, subject choices and changes and with advice to help you develop effective study skills to make your time here easier.

The Team will also organise the educational trips through ‘Aim Higher’, our scheme which allows students to experience an early taste of Higher Education through residential visits to universities across the country.
