Principal's Welcome

I am delighted that you are considering joining Long Road Sixth Form College. We are a friendly, inclusive college, and we will welcome you into our community from the moment you make an application to study with us.

We understand that the move from school can sometimes feel a little daunting. Don’t worry - we make sure you have individual support throughout your time with us, to ensure a smooth transition and to get the most out of college life.

At Long Road, you’ll learn in a mature, university-style setting on our beautiful green campus. We will help you gain the knowledge and skills to thrive here, and we will support you in preparing for the future, whether you are planning on university, apprenticeship or employment as your next step.

We are experts in 16-19 education. Our students are successful because our teachers are truly committed subject specialists. We recognise every student is unique and provide the support that’s right for you.

Long Road has a long and proud history of supporting students to achieve their very best. Progress Coaches will work with you in tutorials and one-to-one meetings to help you make the jump to higher level study, and to discuss your future plans. We also have specialist teams in Careers, Academic Support and Student Welfare for you to access as you need. 

Our goal is your success. We want you to leave Long Road proud of what you have contributed and achieved; ready to make a positive difference in the world.

I look forward to meeting you soon.

My very best wishes,
