Virtual Open Evening

Welcome to our Virtual Open Evening

At Ashton Sixth Form College, we offer over 50 courses on A-Level, Mixed Study and Vocational programmes, allowing you to choose the study programme to suit you. When you join Ashton Sixth Form College, you join our thriving and friendly community.

Our dedicated Teachers provide you with the skills and knowledge to succeed in your future careers. Our network of Senior Tutors, Careers Advisers, Counsellors, Inclusive Learning and Guidance Teams, ensure that you are supported throughout your college journey.

You will gain access to countless opportunities to play sports, join societies, complete work experience, travel and hear from leading employers and lecturers, in order to both challenge and inspire you.

Our expectations are high and so too are our students’. Over the past four years we’ve been ranked as the best college in the area by the Department for Education, and in February 2020 we were awarded an Oustanding rating by Ofsted. Our students consistently achieve the best, progressing on to some of the most highly regarded universities, higher apprenticeships and employers in the country.
