Sixth form

Welcome to Dane Court sixth form

The sixth form at Dane Court provides both space and structure for students to develop and follow their own academic and personal interests. We encourage students to be creative, tolerant and to aim for academic, sporting and cultural excellence.

Our vision, values and aims

Developing knowledgeable and caring young people who help to create a better and more peaceful world.

Caring

We show empathy, compassion and respect. We have a commitment to service, and we act to make a positive difference in the lives of others and in the world around us.

Open-minded

We critically appreciate our own cultures and personal histories, as well as the values and traditions of others. We seek and evaluate a range of points of view, and we are willing to grow from the experience.

Principled

We act with integrity and honesty, with a strong sense of fairness and justice, and with respect for the dignity and rights of people everywhere. We take responsibility for our actions and their consequences.

Testimonials

“I am so pleased with Dane Court from the support, teaching staff and everything the school has to offer.”

“It's an incredible school and the support they have given my daughter with her mental health and anxiety is top tier and really appreciated.”

“Both children are very happy and we feel that most teachers go the extra mile for them. Their relationships with most of their teachers are lovely, the teachers seem to be interested in the students as people.”

“I was very impressed when I raised a recent concern for my child - the school were very supportive and went the extra mile.”

“In my opinion it is an outstanding school and my son has been very happy.”
