Academic Excellence
Hoe Valley Sixth Form is a firmly academic Sixth Form, able to offer a wide range of subjects. Although we are new, because of the way we have piloted our systems we already have a track record to be proud of.
A-Level Results
Based on a small sample of students in our pilot year, our results in 2024 were impressive:
- A*-A = 18%
- A*-B = 55%
- A*-C = 91%
Each of these grades tells their own personal story, and we were delighted with how each and every student performed in their exams.
Hoe Valley's wider results
Hoe Valley has always recruited teachers who are, or have the potential to be, real leaders in their field, and this is reflected in our GCSE results. We are proud of our attainment, and can already see the success of our approach in our A-Level results.
University Placement
We have excellent working relationships with many leading universities, and are proud to have supported students in securing places at universities including Royal Holloway, Southampton and Cardiff. We organise regular trips to visit universities, but would strongly encourage students to organise their own open day visits to anywhere they may be hoping to study.
Oxbridge
Our dedicated link colleges at Oxford and Cambridge provide regular opportunities to targeted Sixth Formers, and we will support any realistic application.
Teaching and Learning
Firmly rooted in cognitive science, our A-Level teaching style focusses on small groups, sitting around a boardroom table in small seminar rooms. We feel that this more adult style of learning provides key advantages and eases the transition to university.
