Step Into Sixth Transition Experience

Step Into Sixth is an immersive experience in June for all new students, designed to help you make confident decisions about your future and feel fully prepared for sixth form life.

This specially curated programme gives you a real taste of what makes The New Sixth different. You’ll discover how sixth form learning differs from school, explore the greater independence it brings, and begin building the skills needed for success in this exciting new chapter.

From climbing walls to escape rooms, A Level speed dating to scenic walks, you’ll experience team-building activities that help you connect with fellow students and forge early friendships. Current students will share their experiences and offer valuable advice about subject choices, whilst key staff will guide you through what to expect.

You’ll meet your future teachers, gain insight into your chosen subjects, and receive clear guidance on summer work – all designed to help you feel ready and empowered as you take your next step. Our approach mirrors university learning, with collaborative discussions, independent thinking, and personalised support. 

At The New Sixth, we strike the perfect balance between structured guidance and the freedom to develop your own learning style – preparing you not just for A Levels, but for the ambitions that lie ahead.
