SIXTH FORM – KEY STAGE 5 (A LEVEL)

SIXTH FORM AT
AL-RUSHD INDEPENDENT COLLEGE

Sixth form is a crucial time in a student’s life – a time of significant development both academically and personally. College life is a period of transition marked by subject specialism, increased responsibility and leadership opportunities, with a view to life beyond Al-Rushd College. You will certainly be expected to work hard here, but at the same time the atmosphere is informal, with teachers and students on respectful terms and appropriate uniforms!

The next level after students’ completion of the GCSE or IGCSEs is the A-Levels. It is both impressive and overwhelming to move to the next level since most students do not always know what to expect from this next step in their academic life.

The sixth form at Al-Rushd Independent College gains various advantages than in other traditional sixth form schools and colleges while undertaking their A-level education.

ADVANTAGES OF
AL-RUSHD INDEPENDENT COLLEGE

Personal Development

We’d like our students to enjoy themselves too: it’s a friendly platform, students of all backgrounds get on well together and we offer an extensive course of extra-curricular accomplishments that help upkeep students’ CVs and allows them to develop new skills and have some fun!

Throughout their time here at Al-Rushd Independent College, our aim is that students will:

  • Be taught the importance of hard work;
  • Find what interests them, what they are good or excel at;
  • Assist and lead, learning about the essence of a community
  • Appreciate and value an atmosphere based on mutual teacher-student respect and collaboration
  • Work and make friends with other students from a rich diversity of cultures and backgrounds;
  • Obtain exceptional groundwork for life at university and beyond.
  • Learn to manage own time efficiently
  • Advance research as well as communication competences, which are so vital in the real world
  • Be inspired by their subject choices to desire to learn beyond the course

LESS DISTRACTION

Since we only offer online classes, our students are lucky to learn from their preferable places without the fear of distractions. There is less noise at home, and students tend to be more focused since they learn from a comfortable environment. We explored that no time is wasted on behavioral issues at Al-Rushd Sixth Form College, which is vital in years 12 and 13.

SMALLER CLASSES

Our small class sizes are also advantageous since they allow interaction with teachers, who can focus on specific students experiencing challenges.

MORE FREE TIME

For instance, students with two or three A-Level online classes are expected to be more committed and attentive for 12 hours a week, giving them ample time to revise and focus on other activities. The flexibility of the curriculum we use is, therefore, another one of its advantages. Students can study with us from anywhere where there is an Internet connection. This gives students additional time to plan other self-study,activities and fit jobs within their timetable.
