Sixth Form Consultation with Primary Schools

As you may be aware we are starting the consultation process for extending our academy age range to include a 6th Form. We feel that having a 6th Form will enable our Year 11 students to continue in high quality education without the need to travel variable distances to 12 further education establishments in Wiltshire.

We believe that during the 5 years our students spend at Lavington School we get to know them well and enable them to fulfil their potential. Ofsted commented that “relationships between students and teachers are very strong”, "students consistently demonstrate outstanding attitudes towards learning" and "students’ behaviour around the school and in lessons is excellent." We feel that we are best placed to build upon the strengths of our students and to ensure that all our students continue to make great progress during their 6th Form studies.

Our ex-students constantly tell us that they wish they could have stayed on to study at Lavington post-16 and many say how difficult it is to start all over again at a new school/college.

Therefore we feel that is in the best interests of our students and our community for Lavington to become an 11-18 school and we would appreciate it greatly if you could complete this very brief survey.
