ag6: what’s new?

Well the building for a start.
It’s quality. Absolutely amazing. Everything’s top notch, well
designed. Not too big that you feel lost but at the same time it’s bright, welcoming and airy. We’ve even got a grass roof!

We have something special going on in the classrooms too.
Naturally you’ve got a mix of
applied courses and more
traditional A Levels on offer, but uniquely at Alder Grange you can do a combination of the two.

Come to the open evenings and you will find out that ag6 has a secret ingredient which makes it incredible. You get a strong sense of community and a warm,
caring and supportive ethos.

ag6: it’s all good!

Niall

“I really like that I can study a mix of BTEC and A Level courses at ag6. No where else offered me the combination of courses I wanted. I am studying BTEC Creative Media along side Geography, Art and Business Studies A Levels. I hope to work in design or Architecture in the future.”

“I have always wanted to be a primary school teacher and what really attracted be to ag6 was the Future Teachers programme. I know the teachers here will help me get the best possible grades in my A Levels and the knowledge and work experience I will gain from Futures Teachers should put me at an advantage when I apply to University.”

“I am loving ag6! As Student President I feel
priviledged to represent all the ag6 students. I am determinded that as a group we will be remembered for the work we are doing in setting up the Student Union. I have been involved in school council throughout my school career at Alder Grange and I am passionate about the power of Student Voice. I hope to study Law at University.”

Michael
