thinking abt leaving sixth form to go to sixth form college

ive been going to sixth form for over a week now and honestly i dont really like the vibe of it especially because there r so many younger years there too. i also kinda want a more chill environment with less pressure on rules so i am considering going to sixth form college but i dont know if it is better to stay in sixth form instead

I say do whatever you feel will benefit you. I also just started sixth form and I also completely get the whole "not the vibe" thing with the whole younger years and everybody already being friends with eachother. Sixth form is more school like whereas college can be more freeing but it depends on how you like to study and what will benefit you for when A levels come up. whatever you do i'm sure it'll be for the best!!

I go to a sixth form college and it is slightly more laid back I would say but still stressful obv with A-levels. I would say it depends on how you work. If you think that you need to be told to revise and have free periods in school where you can be ‘monitored’ to revise then I would stay in sixth form, but if you have the motivation to revise from you’re own free will then sixth form college is good for that.
