The Post 16 Team

The Post 16 team works closely with students throughout their Sixth Form journey, helping them achieve their academic goals and prepare confidently for life beyond John Taylor Free School.

Students are part of a supportive and ambitious community where independence is encouraged and everyone is encouraged to make the most of the opportunities available to them. Alongside the curriculum, a wide range of enrichment and careers opportunities ensures students are well prepared for university, apprenticeships or employment.

Support and Community

Post 16 students are part of a wider school community, where support is available both academically and personally. Alongside the Post 16 leadership team, Progress Leaders and the Student Support team provide guidance, encouragement and practical support throughout a student’s time in Sixth Form.

The house system plays an important role in building a sense of belonging, with Post 16 students acting as leaders and role models, contributing to the wider life of the school.

As Post 16 continues to grow, new students play an important role in shaping an ambitious and evolving community.
