Your Child’s Seven-Year Journey at South Wirral High School
At South Wirral High School, we see every student as part of a seven-year journey with us—from Year 7 through to their successful transition into post-16 education. While our Sixth Form is no longer part of that journey, our commitment to ensuring that every student secures an ambitious, high-quality next step remains unwavering.
As students approach the point of choosing their KS5 pathways, we work tirelessly to provide outstanding information, advice and guidance. Our goal is simple: to help every young person identify, access, and thrive in the post-16 destination that best suits their aspirations, strengths, and future plans.
We work in close partnership with a wide range of sixth forms and providers—including local grammar school sixth forms, other colleges, apprenticeship providers and specialist skills-based settings—to ensure every student can pursue a route that enables them to reach their full potential. These partnerships allow us to offer breadth, choice and expert guidance across academic, vocational and technical pathways.
Through personalised support, access to high-quality providers, and a strong focus on careers education and transition, we ensure that all students are fully prepared for the next stage of their education.
Below, you will find a comprehensive directory of sixth form and college providers to support informed decision-making for your child’s next steps.
