It is my privilege to welcome you to Beauchamp City Sixth Form, a school focused on nurturing our students’ academic endeavour to ensure they are afforded limitless opportunities in choosing their future.

We are determined to prepare our young people to become fully functioning citizens with the ability to shape and navigate the world around them. Our Student Support Centre, along with our team of form tutors provide exceptional pastoral support to ensure that our students develop holistically.

We are fortunate to work with students who are highly motivated to achieve, and who represent the diverse community we serve. We work with young people who have ambitions to become the change-makers of the future.

We are a school fully committed to our local community, with the aim of ensuring that students in Leicester and Leicestershire are able to benefit fully from their aspirations. With a focus on a traditional academic A Level curriculum, we provide young people with the best possible chance of securing places at the most prestigious universities and higher-level apprenticeships.

James McKenna

Principal, Beauchamp City Sixth Form 

Beauchamp City Sixth Form is a dedicated post-16 provider at the heart of Leicester city, with the aim of inspiring, educating and empowering students through a traditional, academic curriculum. Situated in former corporate offices near Leicester train station, the building underwent a total refurbishment prior to opening in September 2020 and now boasts state-of-the-art science labs and classrooms with the latest technology for teaching.

Our mission is to provide specialist academic teaching that ensures access to the most prestigious universities and higher-level apprenticeships for any young person from any background, breaking down barriers that may impact on their success.

As part of the Lionheart Educational Trust, Beauchamp City Sixth Form builds on the well-established commitment to academic excellence at Beauchamp College in Oadby, which has an undeniable pedigree of delivering excellent academic opportunities at A-Level.

With the first A-level exams to be taken in 2022, Beauchamp City Sixth Form is striving for excellence, with an aim that over 80% of its aspirational learners will successfully go on to study at university. This will include a significant proportion transitioning onto STEM courses and Russell Group universities.

Our focus not only on academic excellence, but also placing importance on holistic development, means we challenge our students to go beyond the ordinary and ask the questions that really matter. This is why we not only provide opportunities for academic development, but for extra-curricular exploration beyond the classroom. This may be through a relevant work experience placement, university workshops from the Russell Group and other top tier providers, Duke of Edinburgh or international volunteering opportunities to destinations such as Peru and Tanzania.

We are excited to be delivering a new and unique approach to sixth form education in Leicester City and hope you will join us on our journey to excellence.

Beauchamp City Sixth Form is part of the Lionheart Educational Trust.
