FAQs
What is the Staffordshire sixth form partnership?
For several years now schools in Stafford have worked collaboratively to offer the best possible choice of subjects to post-16 students in the town. The goal of the Sixth Form Partnership is to maximise the opportunities for all 16-19 students by ensuring they have access to the broadest possible curriculum, whether this is a purely academic route or a mix of vocational and academic subjects. The collaboration is Blessed William Howard, King Edwards, Sir Graham Balfour, Stafford Manor and Weston Road.
Which subjects should I chose to study at A level?
Firstly consider which topics you enjoy studying, you will spend a lot of time on these subjects for the next two years.
Do you need a particular subject for your chosen subject at university, research this before you make your choices.
If you are considering a new subject such as criminology, psychology do you know what they entail?
How do I know which subjects are in which block?

Can I study BTECs and A-levels together?
In the partnership you are able to study BTECs and A-levels together if they are a single or double award. They must be in different blocks to the A- levels.
If my lesson is at another school, how do I get there?
