Our Sixth Formers have been busy bringing Christmas cheer to Rainham Sixth as they decorated our Sixth Form tree and prepared the building for the festive season! 🌟 🎄 Meanwhile, our dedicated Year 13s are balancing celebrations with focus — working hard on their mock assessments and showing real perseverance and maturity.

We’re proud of you and your continued progress ✨

🌟 Sixth Form Open Evening – What an Incredible Night! 🌟 This evening we were absolutely overwhelmed by the turnout for our Sixth Form Open Evening! It was fantastic to see so many Year 11 students — both from our own school community and from other schools — exploring what makes our Sixth Form such a popular choice for post-16 study. Our main hall was fit to bursting, and we even had to open our overflow rooms to accommodate all of our wonderful visitors. Parents and carers enjoyed a range of subject talks across five different areas, following an inspiring main presentation in the hall. With 32 exciting course options to choose from — including BTEC Travel, BTEC Dance, BTEC Medical Science, BTEC IT, BTEC Business, Health & Social Care, Psychology, Criminology, Media, Chemistry, History, Physics, Photography, PE, Fine Art, Sociology, Maths, Biology, Drama, Textiles, Philosophy & Ethics, Graphics, Government & Politics, Law, and English Language & Literature — it’s no wonder our Sixth Form continues to grow in popularity. We are also proud to be the top non-selective school in Medway for outcomes, a testament to the dedication of our staff and the hard work of our students. A huge thank you to all the students, parents, and carers who joined us this evening. We hope you enjoyed hearing from our passionate staff and learning more about what makes our Sixth Form a vibrant, supportive, and ambitious place to study. We can’t wait to welcome our next cohort in September – if tonight is anything to go by, it’s going to be an amazing year ahead! 💙 #SixthForm #OpenEvening #TopSchoolInMedway #FutureStartsHere #Post16 #StudentSuccess

✨Today’s the Day!✨ Our Open Evening is happening tonight! Come and discover why our Sixth Form is the place to take your learning beyond the classroom. We pride ourselves on supporting our students’ ambitions, both academic and extracurricular. A perfect example is Evie in Y13, one of our incredible students, who recently travelled to Canada during the October half term to train for a university place doing ice hockey! Her hard work and dedication have truly paid off—she’s been offered an amazing sports scholarship for ice hockey starting in 2026! Join us this evening to learn more about the opportunities available and how we help students achieve their dreams. We can’t wait to meet you tonight 18:00-20:00!
