We strive to offer a mixture of academic enrichment and personal development opportunities to all our Sixth Form students.

Our timetabled curriculum offers students the opportunity to study one of the following compulsory subjects:

  • Core Maths
  • Extended Project Qualification
  • Sports Leader Qualification
  • A Level Electronics

In addition we offer the following enrichment opportunities outside of lessons:

  • Supporting younger students in lessons
  • Student Leadership Team
  • Editorial Team of The Kings Herald newspaper
  • Peer Mentoring
  • Library support
  • Tour Guides
  • Gold Duke of Edinburgh Award
  • Running KA Klubs
  • Various volunteering roles

Our Academic Enrichment Programme involves trips, visits, academic competitions, debates and speakers and is a great source of 'super-curricular enrichment' and is available for all our Sixth Form students.
Students in Year 12 can also apply for a Travel Scholarship, funded by the King Alfred's Educational Charity, which supports them to undertake a trip planned by themselves with some educational benefit.
