Welcome to Lewes 6th Form College

Lewes 6th Form College is a successful place to study, learn and achieve. It is a college with a culture of learning but with a human side as well. When I ask students why they came to Lewes the answers are nearly always the same, because of the excellent courses, our good teaching and results record plus the friendly atmosphere.

We offer traditional A Levels, Diplomas, GCSEs as well as vocational and skills courses at a number of levels and students choose us because of our good teaching, results and retention record plus the friendly environment.

A friendly college

Students at Lewes benefit from a wide range of opportunities and resources that a large modern college attracts, whilst maintaining the ambience of a smaller, friendly college that values each of its students as individuals. Students can take part in a variety of sports, fundraising and social and cultural activities that make Lewes 6th Form College a real community.

Lewes is like a mini university campus, it has a warm and friendly environment that makes the step up to A Level less daunting. Jonathan Bauckham, English Language and Literature, Early Eodern Modern, Music A2 level, Pre-professional Music diploma

Studying: Uniformed Public Services

Sussex Downs College is a highly recommended, local college. I want to be a pilot, and really enjoy our outdoor activities unit, where we got to go camping, paintballing, rock climbing and do a high walks course. We also write essays on the different aspects of public services life.
