About South Sefton Sixth Form College
A Message from the Principal
Welcome to South Sefton 6th Form College
I am delighted that you are interested in joining our 6th Form College. I want to assure you from the outset that if you do choose to join us you will be valued as an individual with a unique set of talents and skills and we will support you in the pursuit of your ambitions.
I also want to assure you that we are committed to academic excellence and we will do our utmost to ensure you achieve your potential during your time with us.
We expect you to be committed to learning and to work hard; but we also believe that you will only do this if you enjoy your time at College and are able to learn in a safe, caring and happy environment. College life should not just be about studying but should also provide opportunities to take part in activities such as sport, music, drama and dance as well as visits to places in this country and abroad. These are what will help you develop as well-educated young men and women and for this reason I strongly encourage you to take part in the various enrichment activities on offer.
I firmly believe that you deserve the very best and we are fortunate to have a brand new state-of-the-art building with the most up-to-date technology.
We decided that the most appropriate motto for our College is “Where Aspiration Meets Opportunity”, so if you aspire to do well and you have high ambitions, then I really look forward to receiving your application and meeting you.
With my best wishes for a successful Year 11.
Mrs Laetitia Shemilt
Principal
