Welcome
Key Staff: Mrs R Broomhall - Head of Sixth Form
Blessed William Howard's place in The Stafford Sixth Form Partnership enables our students to access a much wider range of courses and qualifications which may not all be available within our school.
We aim to accommodate our students on appropriate courses and to maintain the pastoral care and enrichment which we consider to be a strength of our school. Where students may wish to study subjects off-site our position within the Stafford Sixth Form Partnership facilitates this.
