Here are some things you might like to know

When is my first day?

Your first day is Wednesday 3 September - we can't wait to see you!

New students should arrive at the Sixth Form Centre for 9am.

What will I do during my induction?
On your first day, you'll take part in a series of induction and team building activities. You will get to know your way around the school as well as spend time with your buddy. You will also receive your timetable for the year ahead. 

There will also be time to meet the Director of Sixth Form and Head of Year so that you know who to go to with any problems. 

What happens during the rest of my first week?

After an introduction to academics and a whole school assembly on Thursday morning, you will be getting straight into lessons which will give you the opportunity to meet classmates and get to know your new timetable. Importantly, you’ll get the chance to sign up for co-curricular activities, and if you’re ready, jump straight in to all that is on offer.

What are my lunch and refreshment options?
A complimentary lunch will be provided on the first day. You’ll also learn how to use your fingerprint to buy lunch and refreshments from the Sixth Form Diner.

The Diner is open from 8am to 2pm, offering a variety of refreshments and snacks throughout  the day, whether you need breakfast, a quick break-time bite, or lunch.

How do I get to school?
As an eco-friendly school, we are fortunate to benefit from excellent public transport links, and operate several school bus routes from around South West London.

You can get directions to the school here

I'm a little bit nervous ...
Starting Sixth Form can be daunting but we’re confident that once you’ve been here for a few days, you’ll feel part of the Putney family.
