Sixth Form Curriculum
Working together to ensure all students achieve their full potential and are able to pursue their individual goals
Our Sixth Form curriculum is carefully designed to meet the needs of our students. We review the subjects offered each year to ensure breadth of choice for our prospective students. We design our option blocks around student preferences allowing an exceptionally wide range of subject combinations. Our students study either 3 or 4 A-Level courses and our Sixth Form Extra (6FX) programme which enables students to pick up additional qualifications or use the time for wellbeing and leisure, and this is entirely led by the student. Additional qualifications on offer beyond the core A-Level curriculum include the Extended Project Qualification (EPQ), Personal Finance, Spoken English, and the Sports Leadership Award.
Our Sixth Form students also follow our bespoke school programme in Personal, Social, Health and Sex and Relationships Education, Citizenship and Careers Education, Information, Advice and Guidance, which are tailored to providing our young people with the knowledge and skills they need at this crucial stage in their lives as well as preparing them for their adventures beyond MGGS.
The curriculum is outstandingly well geared to students’ academic needs and provides exceptionally well for their future studies. Curricular breadth is seen in the strong promotion of the arts, music and sport.

Making Your Subject Choices
When deciding upon which subjects to study students should bear in mind the following:
I can honestly say that since my daughter has been at MGGS that her confidence has improved, she’s more likely to express her opinions and generally seems much happier in herself. She never considered going to university until attending this school, but now she is and it seems as though her future is looking more promising than ever.
