William Brookes Sixth Form Open Evening is fast approaching, with the opportunity to come and speak to staff and students about the vast array of subjects and enrichment on offer.
One of the key features of our Sixth Form is the huge variety of extra-curricular opportunities available to you. We have a range of roles for paid employment as a lunch time supervisor, encore instructor, life guard or swimming teacher and through the Edge box office. We also have opportunities for students to support KS3 and KS4 pupils as a reading mentor or academic mentor which is rewarded with an Amazon voucher every term. As well as positions of responsibility within the Sixth Form such as President and Vice President, Activities and Charities team, Media and Publicity team, Sports captains and many more.
Over the course of an academic year you can expect be part of some very successful fund raising events such as Macmillan, Sport Relief, and Stand up for Cancer as well as the annual Christmas and Summer parties at popular venues around Shropshire to let your hair down.If you enjoy trips then there are plenty of those to get involved in also, whether it’s to local universities, careers events or related to your academic courses, and even some just for fun.
At William Brookes Sixth Form we believe in developing the WHOLE individual, making enrichment and extra-curricular opportunities just as important as academic ones. If we don’t have something available that you are interested in then why not ask, and let’s get it set up!
