Welcome from the
Executive HeadteacherDirector of Sixth Form

Welcome to Gildredge House Sixth Form! We have very high ambitions for our students and we aim to provide an outstanding educational experience. Our Sixth Form won an SSAT Educational Outcomes award in 2020 for being in the top 10% of non-selective schools nationally for student attainment at Key Stage 5 in academic subjects. We believe that education is about social and emotional development that leads to a high level of academic success.

Employers and Universities tell us that they want students with a full set of qualifications in addition to a set of well developed skills in teamwork, resilience, good time-keeping, leadership and emotional intelligence; all these are at the heart of our Sixth Form offer at Gildredge House....
