SIBFORD SIXTH FORM
Support for Learning (SfL)
Support is offered to any student entering the Sixth Form who feels they would benefit from the support of a specialist SfL tutor. We offer a variety of tuition for A Level study. You can opt for one or more individual weekly tutorial sessions with a member of the SfL team.
Our aim is to underpin learning and work towards transition to Higher Education studies. There is a focus on relevance to study, overlearning, motivation and ‘little and often’. The broad areas considered to create targets are:
• Effective study skills • Assistive technology • Time management and organisation • Reading for research • Writing: assignments, essays, reports • Establishing learning priorities.
Catherine Stockdale, Head of Support for Learning
The SfL team will carry out the necessary assessments for access arrangement applications for public examinations and will help you with the preparation of your CV and personal statement.
Study Skills Development (PHSE programme)
Students are supported to develop Study Skills throughout Years 12 and 13. These sessions sit alongside academic and vocational subjects and include a wide range of areas such as note-taking, summarising, avoiding plagiarism, writing essays, and active reading strategies.
All of the sessions are designed to enhance student performance at A Level and BTEC as well as prepare students for their life at University or in the world of work or apprenticeship.
In addition to the taught sessions, students also have the opportunity to ‘drop in’ for support or guidance with specific areas of the curriculum and this is provided on a small group or one-to-one basis throughout the academic year.
