As a grandparent of one of the students, I'm told there are very few students wearing face masks and there is no social distancing in the corridors.

Great place to learn. My only concern is that the 'curly' fries aren't quite curly enough for my satisfaction. The angle at which they create with my protractor is on average 160 degrees ( on a survey carried out on 47 chips purchased at the same time at the refectory between the working days of Tuesday and Friday). As I'm sure many will agree, this does not qualify as 'curly'! Officially (according the 2011 food welfare standards a 'curly' frie must have an angle of at Maximum 90 degrees once cooled for 15 minutes. Apart from this glaring obvious downfall, it's a good school. :)
Vile staff don’t let your child join unless you want them to be bullied by the people who are supposed to be protecting them. Additionally the sixth form is only predicted to last for another year due to rubbish ratings, not good if your looking for stability in your education.
Truly a great place to learn, excellent teachers, a dedicated and truly understanding team for people with learning difficulties or mental health problems, and a zero tolerance of any kind of bullying for which there is appreciable evidence that such bullying has occured. Only slight issue is the teachers are possibly a bit too intent on making students embrace independent learning, compared with their success in making students embrace it, which leads to some students simply not knowing what the Hell's going on in the first few terms, which catches up to them towards the end of the first year and threatens to stop them passing on to the second. If you send your child here, make sure they know it's going to be a step up from what they're used to, and that they have to stay light on their feet with revision and coursework deadlines.
As a past student. I can say Newcastle Sixth Form College was truly an amazing part my life. In my first year I got involved with being a student ambassador, volunteering with one of their many charity links and took part in their first ever World challenge expedition to India. I wasn't the best of students in my first year leaving me with mixed AS results. However with the amazing support of the staff I gained the motivation and determination to come out with the amazing results that I did. I also was quickly promoted to the lead student ambassador in my second year. The college gave me the confidence to do do much, I even gained a part time job in my second year. This place offers way more than an educational, they've prepared me for life (including giving me the confidence to spend a month this coming Sumner to volunteer teaching English in Fiji)
