Vision:
To ensure all pupils are equipped to achieve academic success; NCC sixth form students developed into global citizens well prepared for the next stage of their lives and active members of our school community.
Our Sixth Form is a vibrant, diverse and successful community that consists of 140 young people male and female who have chosen to continue their studies with us at an advanced and intermediate level. I am proud to say that we have students from all over the world currently studying with us. A vast number of our students are comprised from the lower school; however we fully welcome applications from external students and those who have previously studied abroad.
The Head of Sixth Form at Newman Catholic College, is committed to the holistic development and progression of each of our learners. He is conscious of the essential role education plays in a young person’s life and as such aims to harness this to support students to develop into spiritual and moral beings, with high aspirations, capable of impacting positively upon society.
