Our Sixth Form
Alsop High School is the largest school in the city, with almost 1700 students on roll, including around 280 in the Sixth Form. Our Sixth Form offers the most diverse range of post-16 subjects of all the Liverpool secondary schools, with a mixture of the more traditional A Level subjects and a wide range of Level 3 BTEC courses.
It is a school of first choice, with a welcoming, caring and successful environment which promotes and values the achievement of all students. The School believes that every student has the capacity to reach their full potential and has something to offer society.
Alsop High School gives students the chance to continue their studies in Liverpool’s biggest purpose-built, state-of-the-art Sixth Form centre, which includes an IT-equipped study area and a Cyber Café. The School also provides an exciting enrichment programme, incorporating lessons in academic writing, political literacy, debating, ICT in Modern Britain, personal finance and nutrition.
The Duke of Edinburgh Award Scheme, volunteering certificate and Higher Sports Leaders Award are all offered to older students encouraging social skills, confidence and teamwork.
Our commitment to our students is evident not just in the exceptional surroundings but also in the strong pastoral Sixth Form team which includes an Assistant Headteacher, Head of Sixth Form, two Assistant Heads of Year and a Sixth Form Admin Manager. This team works together to offer both pastoral and academic support throughout Key Stage 5. Extensive guidance is given for those applying for university with regular UCAS support sessions and trips to universities. Each year a large number of students to on to university or higher education; something the School is very proud of.
The Building Schools for the Future programme (BSF) has ensured that Alsop now has some of the best facilities in Merseyside.
Sixth Formers have access to the latest technology to support their development with over 1600 PCs and laptops, interactive whiteboards in every room, ultra-fast broadband access and the latest software. The future looks extremely bright for Alsop Sixth Form. Our facilities have transformed learning at Alsop and continue to support students to be successful.
