How many new people joined your sixth form

Long story short, from this day onwards I have no "true" friends at my current school. Starting sixth form in September wanted to know roughly how many people join a new sixthform I need a new set of friends.

In my experience, half of the year 11s that could have continued on to sixth form in my school left so that half was replaced by all new students, so basically half the people in my sixth form were new.

But it really depends on your school - if you're in a school that offers boarding like mine then you're more likely to get a lot of new students but if you're a 100% day school then you probably won't have as many new students!

Hope this helps :h:

Is your school a hub where foreign students tend to enroll?
Umm, about 60 new people joined.
In mine only around 50 new people joined and there were only 7 of us guys in the entire year :wink:

180 (including the 60 new ones).
Maybe 20 or so? Anyway quite a few left within the first two weeks :laugh:
My school didn't offer a sixth form, we all had to go to college
only 1 new person joined mine, and that was just because his girlfriend goes there
