We invite you to take some time to look through our Sixth Form Handbook, put together by the Sixth Form Team alongside our Sixth Form Student Leadership Team. It’s designed to give you a clear picture of what life in the Sixth Form at Chellaston Academy is really like and to answer the questions you might have before you start.
Inside, you’ll find everything from practical information — such as what to wear and bring, how the day is structured, how to connect to email and Wi-Fi, and what to do if you’re absent — to guidance on assessments, financial support, volunteering opportunities, and communicating with parents and carers. You’ll also get to know the Sixth Form Team and the Sixth Form Student Leadership Team who are here to support you throughout your journey.
We hope the handbook will help you feel fully prepared, reassured, and excited for the opportunities ahead. This is the next step in your academic journey, and we’re really looking forward to welcoming you into our Sixth Form community.
