Thank you for considering BWS Sixth Form for your A levels. We offer outstanding academic opportunities that will allow you to enjoy your chosen subjects and achieve the highest grades. Our experienced subject specialists teach a wide selection of courses, and our aim is to both deliver in terms of results and also build independence in our students. Because of this BWS students are sought by both universities and employers, so studying at Bishop Wordsworth's is a great investment in your future. Since September 2020 our Sixth Form has been fully co-educational; we currently have around 400 students in Years 12 & 13, 35% of whom are female. Each year around half of our Year 12 students join us from other schools.
We are also proud of the strong communities and rich opportunities our school offers. Our students enjoy strong friendships, and excel in music, drama and a wide variety of sporting and academic competitions, as well as providing leadership for younger pupils. They display responsibility, humour and creativity, and contribute freely to the life of our wider local community. Since 1890 Bishop's has occupied a place right at the very heart of Salisbury, and our young men and women continue to play important roles throughout local society and farther afield. Bishop's also has a diaspora which is spread across the Globe; they return regularly to bring their huge breadth of experience back to benefit our current students.
We believe that the programme that we offer here at Bishop Wordsworth’s is as extraordinary as our Sixth Form boys and girls, and hope that you will be excited by the opportunities available here too. We'd love to welcome you for a tour so please do book a place at an open event or contact the Sixth Form Office Team to set up a visit...
