THIS ISSixth Form Co-Curricular
Sixth Formers build real-world skills in real-world contexts
At Sherfield, we pride ourselves on producing young adults who are not only ready for life at 18, but are truly “25 Ready”.
25 Ready
This signature concept ensures that when our students leave our doors for the last time, they possess the qualities, character and leadership skills needed for a fulfilling future in the 21st century. Central to this is our commitment to developing sustainably minded, civic-focused young people who understand their responsibility to others and are ready to contribute positively at local, national, and global levels.
Through academic excellence, hands-on experiences with leading universities, companies and NGOs, a carefully curated co-curricular programme and a range of educational visits, we prepare students to thrive - living out our motto:
Ad Vitam Paramus
We Prepare for Life
Ours is one of the richest and most ambitious co-curricular programmes of any school in the region. In a competitive world, alongside academic excellence, students need experiences that shape character, deepen resilience, and spark ambition. Sherfield’s exceptional co-curricular programme gives students exactly that.
From a full afternoon of sport each week to Model United Nations, debating, Duke of Edinburgh Gold, Young Enterprise, and public speaking competitions at Imperial College London, students can build powerful portfolios that impress top universities.
