Havering Colleges Sixth Form is based in Wingletye Lane, Hornchurch, in the London Borough of Havering. The College offers 16 to 19 study programmes to over 2,400 students. The large majority of the courses are A Levels and Level 3 BTECs, with a very wide range of subject choice. The College works collaboratively with schools in Havering, many of which do not have sixth forms and students of these 'partner schools' are guaranteed progression as long as they meet the GCSE grade entry criteria of courses. A recent Ofsted inspection resulted in the grading of Good. The Inspectors recognised that the College is on an improvement journey, stating that ‘Governors and senior leaders are ambitious and have high aspirations for staff and students. They have established a strong culture of improvement at the College’. Particular mention was given in the OFSTED report to the way in which students enjoy their time at College, are supported to make good progress and that teachers ‘use varied and stimulating activities during lessons, which challenge and enthuse’ them.
