1 Hall Park Academy Sixth Form Prospectus

2 A warm welcome to The Sixth Form at Hall Park Academy Thank you for showing an interest in the Sixth Form at Hall Park Academy and for taking time to read our Post 16 prospectus. Moving into Post 16 education is an important career step and we are committed to providing study programmes tailored to your individual needs and employment goals, whether they be university, a high end apprenticeship or sustainable employment. The designated staff leading and supporting the Sixth Form are focused on helping you to maximise your examination results and to improve as a learner. They are also committed to helping you to be aspirational in your career planning and to aim as high as you can for your future. The ethos of our Sixth Form is about hard work combined with developing the motivation, determination and resilience to succeed. You will gain much from your time at Hall Park Academy and in return we expect a high level of commitment and endeavour from you as well as maturity, independent learning and self-discipline. We will help you reach your academic potential, give you support and advice to follow courses in Higher Education, and provide you with opportunities to gain in self-confidence by being involved in a whole range of enrichment and extra-curricular activities. Before you make your decision about where to study next year, it is important that you make an informed choice and take advice from your teachers, parents and friends already studying beyond Year 11. Teachers and support staff will always be prepared to discuss your choices and answer any questions you may have. Do take advantage of their help. Hall Park Academy is sponsored by The Redhill Academy Trust, an outstanding local school. Andrew Burns is the Executive Principal of the Trust and his vision is to provide outstanding academies serving the communities of Redhill, Carlton and Eastwood. Hall Park Academy will provide you with an exciting learning environment where you will feel safe enough to take risks and be encouraged to excel in everything you do. We would strongly urge you to come and see us at our Open Evening or during the school day. We look forward to seeing you soon. Stephanie Dyce Headteacher, Hall Park Academy 02

3 Welcome from the Director of Post 16 We are extremely proud of our Sixth Form and work hard to ensure that all students achieve well and make aspirational choices about their futures in a friendly and welcoming environment. The Sixth Form team consists of a Director of Post 16, four designated Sixth Form Tutors and a Sixth Form Administrator. The team will make sure that you are challenged and well supported to enable you to not only achieve excellent results, but to also grow into a person who will successfully take their place in society. For the majority of students this will mean continuing on to Higher Education at university. We have many years of experience guiding students successfully through the UCAS process. We believe that there are five key areas required for success in the Sixth Form: Attend fully and be punctual Be prepared and fully equipped for lessons Engage fully and participate in learning Review learning and close learning gaps ASAP Do extra work to get ahead! Hall Park Academy Sixth Form also believes in ensuring that students have opportunities to take part in enrichment and extra-curricular activities that will widen their experiences and help them to make a positive contribution to the school and community. We have a committee of students who work closely with the Sixth Form team in organising enrichment activities, charity fundraising and social events. We have very high expectations in terms of academic rigour, attendance and attitude and parents play a key role in helping us work with students to achieve this. This partnership is vital in our continuous strive for excellence and ensures that students remain focused throughout their studies. If you require any further information, or would like a tour of the Sixth Form, please do not hesitate to contact us via the Sixth Form office. I look forward to meeting you. A message from the Head Boy & Girl Hello! We are the Head Boy and Girl at Hall Park Academy Sixth Form. We are very honoured to have been elected to this role, which includes working closely with Mr Caldwell and the Sixth Form team in various events, both in and out of school. We chose Hall Park Academy Sixth Form because of the close professional relationships we developed with the teaching staff lower down the school. We feel the staff know us as individuals and are always willing to give up their time to make sure we get the best grades possible. We also get lots of support from the Sixth Form team, particularly our tutors who listen to us and help us develop as young adults.

4 Why come to Hall Park Academy Sixth Form? Hall Park Academy invested over 50,000 redeveloping the Post 16 centre in 2013, creating new learning environments and specialist resources ready for the Spring of Hall Park Academy is centred on an ambition to be the best and that applies to students and staff. Our students are supported by a dedicated Post 16 Study Centre and have access to specialist teaching and learning facilities across the site, including a fully stocked library and various IT facilities. Even more important than the physical resources are the staff who work here, all of whom are passionate about giving you the advice and support you need to achieve to your full potential. Specialist resources and a lower than average teacher to student ratio ensure that results are good, enabling a considerable number of our students to go on to university. You will be treated as individuals in a more adult learning environment and will be encouraged to take more personal responsibility for your own learning, development and progress. You can choose from a range of AS, A2 and Vocational subjects. Year 12 students tend to take four subjects at AS level or one of the Vocational courses and Year 13 students generally continue with three of their chosen subjects into A2, the usual minimum requirement for university entry. With our positive, friendly and proactive approach to Sixth Form life, Hall Park Academy offers the perfect springboard to Higher Education, an apprenticeship or employment. 04

6 High standards. High expectations. We take academic achievement and standards seriously. It means all students have to be prepared to make studying a priority. You will be joining a community of like-minded people who are determined to achieve the very best grades they can and we will expect you to do the same. Good attendance and punctuality are just as important in the Sixth Form. A good attendance record is an absolute requirement for continuing with any course and to enter employment. The Sixth Form Student Committee, alongside elected student representatives, play a major role in the life of the School. This dedicated team of students meet regularly both as a group and with senior staff to discuss a range of day-to-day issues, which contributes to the effective leadership and management of the Sixth Form. I am now at Nottingham Trent studying Education Studies and Business Education and really appreciate all the hard work and support I got from the school to enable me to do this. A recent from Sarah, Y13 student in

7 Enrichment and extracurricular activities In addition to our academic and vocational courses, we offer a range of enrichment activities within the Sixth Form and various other activities designed to support students in the lower school. These are organised each September. We want our Sixth Form students to become well-rounded, informed and confident individuals who can function effectively within the immediate and wider community. Such life skills are looked favourably upon both by UCAS and employers, enhancing any CV or personal reference written by a member of staff. We offer students the opportunity to take part in various activities as part of their timetable including Young Enterprise, the Duke of Edinburgh scheme, the Extended Project Qualification, National Citizen Service and courses in a modern foreign language and art to select from. The specific list of choices is available each September. It is compulsory for all students who have not achieved a C grade in either GCSE Maths or GCSE English to retake these in Year 12 and if necessary, again in Y13. This will involve additional timetabled periods as required. The enrichment programme will equip and promote self confidence, reliability, cooperation and leadership; skills fundamental to developing competent and responsible citizens within today s society.

9 Entry requirements All subjects at Eastwood Sixth Form have individual entry requirements; this will usually be at least a C at GCSE or Level 2 BTEC pass in the chosen or related subject. Please see course details for individual details of grade requirements. In addition to these grades we will also expect a good attendance record and a positive attitude towards learning. We also have general requirements to follow different Pathways. All Pathways are two years long. BTEC Level 2 qualifications count as one GCSE equivalent subject. Pathway 1 For students who achieve at least 5 A*-C grades at GCSE including English & Maths Students following this pathway are required to take 4 AS levels in Year 12 and at least 3 A2 levels in Year 13 enabling these students to progress onto university. You will need at least 5 A*-C grades at GCSE level including English and Maths. There will be an option to take the Extended Project Qualification for students that are suited to its demands. Pathway 2 for students who achieve at least 5 A*-C grades, mainly at GCSE with at least a C in English Students on this pathway take four AS level qualifications or three AS levels supplemented by a Level 3 BTEC qualification where appropriate. Students may progress to university or seek an apprenticeship or employment at the end of their course. Pathway 3 For students who achieve at least 5 A*-C grades at GCSE and BTEC, preferably with a C in English Students will follow Level 3 BTECs with a view to progressing to university, taking an apprenticeship or going into employment after two years. All students without a grade C in GCSE English and Maths will be required to follow a course that will allow them to achieve it by the end of the two year course. There are also tutor periods and enrichment activities in the timetable.

10 A letter from the Redhill Academy Trust Dear Parents, I would like to warmly welcome you to Hall Park Academy s prospectus. Hall Park Academy will be opened as an academy in September 2014, sponsored by Redhill Academy Trust. As Executive Principal of the Redhill Academy for the past ten years I believe strongly that successful schools have four key characteristics: High expectations of all students Valuing and celebrating academic achievement Consistently good and focused teaching Widening students experiences through a range of extra-curricular activities, including sports, music and the performing arts These four principles will guide the development of Hall Park Academy as a part of The Redhill Trust, for the coming years. Working with Hall Park s Headteacher, Stephanie Dyce, her senior team and the whole school staff, my priority will be to support continued, rapid, but sustainable improvement in all areas of the Academy. I firmly believe that the next few years will be an exciting and very successful time for Hall Park Academy as it becomes the first choice school for all local parents and students. Andrew Burns Executive Principal, The Redhill Academy Trust 10
