To all current Year 11 students and their parents.

We invite you to join us for our Sixth Form Taster Days to be held in Braeburn school on Thursday 18th and Friday 19th June 2026 starting at 9.00am. The event is designed to give all participants a definitive head start on their journey toward university and beyond.

Experience Life as a Sixth Former

This is more than just a preview; it is a full immersion into the Braeburn young-adult environment. During these days, you will:

Get hands-on experience with A Levels, BTEC Level 3, and the prestigious EPQ (Extended Project Qualification).

Participate in taster lessons, high-level debates on global issues, and collaborative team-building exercises.

Learn about our unique leadership opportunities, from becoming a Senior School Senator or Member of Student Parliament to spearheading your own clubs. Visit one of our vibrant community service and outreach projects to see how our students make a tangible difference in the world.

Connect and Consult

You won't just hear from teachers; you’ll have the chance to sit down with current Sixth Form students to discuss the real challenges and rewards of these final two years.

For the Parents and Guardians

As your children participate in the various programmes, parents and guardians will have an opportunity to meet a member of Sixth Form Leadership and SLT for any Q & A.

Please see below testimonies/reflections of some Current year 12’s students who attended last year’s into the Sixth.

Our amazing senators of 2025-26 gave us a tour of the Sixth Form for our taster day. This day allowed me to have a visualisation of the bright future and beautiful opportunities offered by Braeburn Sixth Form. We had the opportunity to have a peak into how social and academic life is here. This amazing experience enlightened us and opened our eyes into the future. The Braeburn Sixth Form, offers a wide range of opportunities, by having different ranges of subjects allowing students to pursue their dreams and have options. All while enabling pupils to partake in sports and extracurricular activities. Students' wellbeing is made a priority.

We as Sixth-Form students are very grateful to be part of such a prestigious institution.

During the Sixth Form taster day, I had a very meaningful experience during our community service trip. Our group visited Kibera to learn more about the daily lives of the people living there. It was an eye-opening experience because I realised how different their living conditions were compared to ours. During the visit, we helped distribute basic supplies and daily necessities to families who needed support. Although the items we gave were simple, I could see how much they appreciated the help.

One of the most memorable parts of the day was spending time with the children. We played games, talked, and laughed together. The children were very energetic and friendly, and their happiness made the experience even more special. It taught me that even small actions can bring joy to others.
