Our child had a fantastic time in the Sixth Form at Sir John Talbot's. The Open6 provision was particularly beneficial, allowing them to balance academic work with part-time jobs and extracurricular activities. The school's focus on student leadership and community service is also noteworthy.

"Mixed Experience So Far"

While we've been pleased with the school's efforts to engage students in the community, we've experienced some issues with communication from the school. Our child has enjoyed the enrichment activities, such as the Normandy trip, but we're still waiting to see more consistency in teaching quality.
