Prospective students, parents and carers will get the chance to view a brilliant Sixth Form this Thursday 

The King Alfred School Academy Sixth Form will open its doors on its Open Evening this Thursday (28th September) from 4.30pm.

There will a talk from the Principal Dan Milford and Head of Sixth Form Doug Radnidge at 5pm. 

The Sixth Form has seen its numbers double in recent years becoming increasingly popular in the area and also Weston-super-Mare and Bridgwater.

There have also been regularly students from across the world including Italy, Germany and Ukraine.

Visitors on Thursday will be able to see over £5 million of site improvements across the school and Sixth Form, including a stunning expanded new block. 

They can hear about the amazing success of students in recent years getting into their chosen universities and into top apprenticeships. 

There is also a very wide range of A Level subjects for students to choose from with extensive extra curricular activities to enjoy, as well as a fabulous community and atmosphere.

Mr Milford said: “We really look forward to meeting prospective students and their parents, carers and families on Thursday.”

TKASA as a whole has also had a brilliant few years with a raft of good news, over £5 million of site improvements, excellent GCSE and A Level results, and a thriving Sixth Form.

TKASA is part of The Priory Learning Trust and has a Jill Dando News centre where students do journalism in the style of Jill Dando, who went to school locally.
