I am delighted that you are considering Bede Sixth Form College. Bede continues to go from strength to strength. In the summer of 2022, we were inspected by Ofsted and were graded ‘Outstanding’ in the following areas:

  • Education programmes for young people
  • Behaviour and attitudes
  • Personal development
  • Leadership and management

This year we completed and opened our new £2.4m annexe which is now fully operational providing state-of-the-art facilities in health sciences, creative and business and legal subject areas. Our students and staff love these facilities.

I am proud to say that Bede students leave us fully prepared for their next steps. We have a 5-year trend of 98% positive destinations – students leave us to go into higher education, employment or apprenticeships. These figures are significantly higher than the national benchmark for sixth form colleges, and with our culture of continuous improvement, we can guarantee you a fulfilling and enriching post-16 education.

We continue to establish links with local employers and businesses to ensure that Bede students are provided with significant work experience opportunities. In the past year alone, our students have worked with Fujifilm, Amazon, Absolute Antibody, Newcastle Falcons and so much more - it really is a fantastic time to be a student here at Bede Sixth Form College.

I am certain that we can make your time at Bede Sixth Form an inspirational, enjoyable and rewarding experience. I know how important it is to make the right choice of college and study programme. So please, take the time to visit us on our open evenings, Twilight Events, ISE High Performance camps, speak to our staff and students and try out the courses during ‘Preview’ in the summer; you won’t be disappointed. I wish you the best of luck with your GCSEs and I look forward to welcoming you to Bede.
