Newcastle Sixth Form College

As a past student. I can say Newcastle Sixth Form College was truly an amazing part my life. In my first year I got involved with being a student ambassador, volunteering with one of their many charity links and took part in their first ever World challenge expedition to India. I wasn't the best of students in my first year leaving me with mixed AS results. However with the amazing support of the staff I gained the motivation and determination to come out with the amazing results that I did. I also was quickly promoted to the lead student ambassador in my second year. The college gave me the confidence to do do much, I even gained a part time job in my second year. This place offers way more than an educational, they've prepared me for life (including giving me the confidence to spend a month this coming Sumner to volunteer teaching English in Fiji)

I don’t recommend this sixth form. The teachers keep leaving and left me and my class stranded with supply/ temporary teachers. There was barely any help and most of the teacher definitely have some sort of favouritism to a particular student especially when they’re getting special treatment and extra support.

Overall, I had a pretty decent experience going to this sixth form. The staff took extra time to help me reach my goals, and provided support and encouragement along the way. I feel like I learnt more in my 2 years here than I did at my previous sixth form.

Great place to learn. My only concern is that the 'curly' fries aren't quite curly enough for my satisfaction. The angle at which they create with my protractor is on average 160 degrees ( on a survey carried out on 47 chips purchased at the same time at the refectory between the working days of Tuesday and Friday). As I'm sure many will agree, this does not qualify as 'curly'! Officially (according the 2011 food welfare standards a 'curly' frie must have an angle of at Maximum 90 degrees once cooled for 15 minutes. Apart from this glaring obvious downfall, it's a good school. :)

Vile staff don’t let your child join unless you want them to be bullied by the people who are supposed to be protecting them. Additionally the sixth form is only predicted to last for another year due to rubbish ratings, not good if your looking for stability in your education.

I can say 100% that this six form is evil. i had a best friend her who was kicked out because he could not have one day off to sit with his girlfriend while she was having a operation. Please for the love of good if you need a caring, helpful, understanding place of education do NOT GO HERE.
