Year 13 - A-level/BTEC

The majority of pupils who enter the Sixth Form at Sedbergh follow a programme of A-Levels. Some, however, enrol for BTEC courses, either as an alternative to A-Levels or in combination with one or more A-Level subjects. The majority of Year 13 pupils pursue three subjects, however, we encourage year 12 pupils to initially choose four subjects. By October half term, many pupils who have started off with four subjects will have decided which three subjects they intend to continue for the full two years and can drop their fourth subject if they wish from that point onwards (and then take up an EPQ at this point). BTEC assessments are different to the A Levels. These courses involve a combination of practical work, assignments and external examinations but the emphasis is on continual assessment.
