The Bedford Sixth Form is a state sixth form located in Bedford, Bedfordshire, England. It is the only institution in Bedford solely dedicated to sixth form choices.
History
The Bedford Sixth Form opened in September 2012. Part of Bedford College, the sixth form centre derives from the college’s existing sixth form provision. A-Levels and Technical Diplomas were previously offered at the college’s main site. In the summer of 2012, Bedford College leased the old Bedford High School site on Bromham Road, after the school had closed. The Bedford Sixth Form has operated from the site ever since. In March 2014, Bedford College purchased the site including the old main school buildings, Trinity Church, and the Sports and Performing Arts (SPA) complex from owners, the Harpur Trust.[1]
In August 2014 the first students to complete a two-year programme at The Bedford Sixth Form received their A-Level results, receiving a 100 per cent pass rate in 24 out of 30 A-Level subjects.[2]
The Bedford Sixth Form today
The Bedford Sixth Form offers a range of GCSEs, A-Levels and Technical Diplomas to 16- to 18-year-olds.[3] The previous SPA complex is managed by Bedford College Services Ltd. trading as Trinity Arts & Leisure - a community facility consisting of a 25-metre six-lane swimming pool, gym and theatre used by local film club and acting groups.
