Sandwell Academy sixth form- any good?

Is Sandwell Academy a good sixth form?
Sorry you've not had any responses about this. :frown: Are you sure you've posted in the right place? :smile: Here's a link to our subject forum which should help get you more responses if you post there. :redface:

You can also find the Exam Thread list for A-levels here and GCSE here. :dumbells:


Just quoting in Puddles the Monkey so she can move the thread if needed :h:

Hi!

I know I am probably too late now, but yes, it is. They are quite pushy but this is good because the results achieved reflect the effort you are essentially made to put in. Plus they achieve extremely good A Level results every year. Some subjects getting 17/25 A* grades.

It depends on what subject lesson it is. AS classes tend to be larger with up to 20 as you go to A levels classes normally around 12-14.

Tbh it’s your choice but if it was me I’d rather have stayed at my old school or had gone to a grammar. SA is overrated I didn’t believe it until I actually studied in it.
