Sixth Form
WELCOME TO THE CUBE: THE SOUTH VIEW SCHOOL SIXTH FORM
At South View School, the Sixth Form experience is more than academic success—it's about shaping future leaders equipped with the skills, knowledge, and character to face a promising yet challenging world. Our curriculum, rooted in the National Curriculum for England and adapted to the UAE’s diverse environment, is designed to support students in every aspect of their journey.
Students in Year 12 and Year 13 have the flexibility to choose between A Levels, BTECs, or a combination of both, allowing for tailored learning that caters to individual aspirations. Our holistic approach ensures that students are not only ready for university but also prepared for life beyond the classroom.
Sixth Form represents a crucial transition into adulthood, emphasizing the importance of independent work and personal ambition. At South View School, we recognize the value of individuality in learning, which is why we offer a diverse range of A Level and BTEC options. Our commitment goes beyond academic excellence to include the development of essential life skills, both inside and outside the classroom.
