Sixth Form Class Work Presentation and Feedback Expectations
Making the transition to Sixth Form
Studying for your A level or BTEC courses will be quite different from what you have experienced at GCSE level. The teachers and classrooms will be familiar to some of you, but for a start, studying fewer subjects means that the level of depth and detail you will pursue in each subject is much greater. You should enjoy studying the subjects that you have chosen, and developing your personal areas of interest further (or discovering them for the first time!). However, spending more time each week on only 3 or 4 subjects and studying in different ways can also take some getting used to. Don’t worry if it takes you a little time to get used to the new routines and ways of working, your teachers and tutors will guide and support you with the transition.
