Close attention and individual care are strong features of the Sixth Form at Batley Grammar School. The Sixth Form is small enough for all staff and students to know each other well. The Head of Sixth Form has overall responsibility for the welfare of the Sixth Form students, with Sixth Form Tutors having no more than twelve students in their care. Personal guidance, including career guidance, happens more easily when all staff are familiar with the needs of our students.

 

Sixth Form students are also involved closely with the pastoral welfare of younger pupils, as school officers and prefects and as monitors for younger forms in Key Stage 3. Sixth Form students play a key role in supporting the pupils of our Junior School, Priestley House, assisting in lessons and in extra-curricular activities.
