Sixth Form
A Warm Welcome to the Quest6, the Sixth Form at Croydon’s Quest Academy Our motto, Learning Changes Lives, reflects our belief in the importance of our work. We are committed to making sure that every student makes outstanding progress. We have high expectations of everyone, offer the best quality teaching and insist on the highest standards of behaviour and respect.
Students at Quest6 Sixth Form achieve strong A Level results, with most progressing to university, apprenticeships or other high-quality destinations. Students benefit from high-quality teaching, strong subject support and opportunities to develop independent learning. Alongside academic success, Quest6 offers a supportive and ambitious environment with a range of enrichment opportunities that build confidence, teamwork and leadership skills, preparing students for life beyond Sixth Form.
Students at Quest6 have access to cutting-edge, state-of-the-art facilities that – for at least the foreseeable future – are arguably the best that Greater London has to offer. A dedicated social study area, seminar-style teaching rooms, brand new technology as well as access to all of Quest’s new buildings ensure that current and future Quest6 students will learn in a modern, peaceful, exceptional education environment. Our strength comes from strong partnerships: with our parents, the community we serve and the close links that we have with our sponsor. We bring together and harness our extensive experience and expertise to everybody’s benefit. Our prospectus gives you a brief insight into our ethos and our work.
We look forward to welcoming you to Quest6.
