The MEA Sixth Form Centre
Our brand new Sixth Form Centre opened in September 2010 inside our new building. Fully inclusive it has 120 places and runs in conjunction with the other Wythenshawe Academies and the Manchester College.
Our Sixth Form offers excellent academic and vocational courses at all levels and a wide variety of activities, giving students the chance to develop into responsible adults. This will raise the aspirations of students and give parents the comfort of knowing that their child can stay at the Academy from age 11 through to age 18. We hope that staying on for the Sixth Form will be the norm and that many of our students will set their sights on going to university.
Post-16 students will be expected to act as role models for our younger students, setting an example of hard work, success and good behaviour. They will have the opportunity to take on leadership roles, running clubs and mentoring. By taking on positions of responsibility students will flourish inside and outside the classroom and become active, confident and responsible citizens.
For a full range of the courses on offer you can either download the pdf on the right or call into the Academy and ask for a copy. Why not come to one of our Open Events where you can meet staff to talk about your or your child's future and sample some of the courses on offer. Keep an eye on our news page for the next one.
