Protecting your investment and valuing your trust in Tranby

Parents and carers, we work with you too. Your investment in Tranby is deeply valued and it’s important we provide complete transparency about what this investment means for your child.

You’ll receive a fortnightly progress report for peace of mind that we’re delivering on our promises.

Our Sixth Form combines academic rigour and high expectations with the independence of a college experience. Students wear their own business-casual clothing and may leave site during free periods. However, if progress slips, free periods are used within the Sixth Form common room to help them get back on track.

This way, we maintain standards and ensure your investment continues to deliver real results.

Beyond Academics: How we support you

Our class sizes are perfectly suited to providing everyone with a tailored Sixth Form education.

Our teachers understand that one size doesn’t fit all, and smaller groups allow them to personalise their teaching to you.

If you ever feel overwhelmed, need extra support, or need to ask something before your next lesson, our Academic Drop-in Sessions are there to support you outside of regular lessons. These sessions give you dedicated time to ask questions and get help in a supportive, private setting.

You’ll have full access to our SEN provision focused on revision, exams, and UCAS. Whether you’re struggling with how to revise or anxious about exams, we are there with the support and recommendations you need. No one should struggle simply because they learn differently.

A culture of respect, kindness and belonging

Our community is built on integrity, bravery and compassion – values that shine through in every lesson, every conversation, and every achievement.

Our students are down to earth, humble and open. They come from varying backgrounds and have an eclectic mix of hopes and ambitions. Some have dreams of improving the world through medical excellence, others want to bring joy through performance. But what they each have in common is a belief that their future matters, and a drive to make it count.

At Tranby, we nurture that belief, helping every student to grow in confidence, take bold steps forward, and leave us not only ready for university, but ready for life

Application process

Entry into Tranby Sixth Form is highly competitive, and places are offered to those who demonstrate both academic potential and the personal qualities that reflect The Tranby Way.

You will have a relaxed interview with the Head, allowing us to get to know you as an individual, your ambitions, motivations, and the contribution you'll make to our community.
We will request a reference from your current school, including your projected GCSE grades. Offers of places are made conditionally, based on these grades and the outcome of the interview and reference review.

Entry is selective because the experience is exceptional, and those who join us are joining something truly unique: a professional, inspiring, and transformative bridge between school and the wider world.

Your future starts here

Places are limited. If you are ready to rise to the challenge, we want to hear from you. Have a chat with your parents/guardians and get in touch with us to discover what Tranby can do for you.
