The recent Ofsted Report stated that students make good progress in the Sixth form and that teaching in the Sixth Form is very good . There is a common timetable in the Joint Sixth Form, and students may choose courses in either school. Since September 2000 all Lower Sixth students choose any four subjects from the extensive number on offer. There is also available a wide range of vocational courses. All students follow the General Studies programme, which includes tuition in Key Skills and a Work Experience placement.
Many students participate in sporting activities, whether for relaxation or competition.
Further details about the Sixth Form can be found in the Sixth Form prospectus which is published each November and is available on request from the Head of Sixth Form. The prospectus has details of all our courses, as well as indicating what life is like in the Sixth Form. We hope that you will feel proud of your link with our school, that you will identify with our aims and aspirations and that you will offer your son every possible support in developing his potential and making his own distinctive contribution to Chichester High School for Boys. To this end we ask all parents to enter into a Home School Agreement with us as we believe that students achieve most when they can work and play hard, secure in the knowledge of a close partnership between home and school. We report to parents at three points in the year through progress reviews, parents consultation evenings and a full annual report.
