What essentials are needed for Sixth Form(stationary)?

I'm starting Sixth Form at my school in September this year. I have chosen Biology, Chemistry, Physics and Religious Studies. What are the essentials to bring? I don't have much money to spend on stationary so I just need to know the things that are really essential.
Oh and how many folders do I need?
I'm stressed and I need good advice.

To be stationary all you need is to be still and not to move.

I didn't need anything different except for a folder with lined paper instead of an exercise book.
It is stationery
Go to wilko and buy some note books, pens,pencils,ruler,eraser,ring binders, highliters and pencil case and a calcuator
Should cost you no more than 25 quids max

normal pencil case items, anything you need for subjects (maths equipment etc.), refill pads, folders (i had one small i carried to class with relevant notes and a large one for each topic which i left at home), a planner - depends on the system you use for your notes but thats what i used

Do you need paper? Or do they give you exercise books?

It would be but I'm looking for serious advice.
It's nothing different from high school, just everything you used for your GCSEs

Folder(s), pen, pencil, bag, ruler & a book with lined paper, not that different from any other year.

Calculator for physics would be useful

Thats it :smile:

Some people take notepads, but you're usually given exercise books. (I go to a sixth form; it might be different elsewhere.)
I don't want an E so I'd bring my stationery. :biggrin: Simple tricks!
