Courses
We offer a diverse range of options in addition to A Levels, such as Level 3 Diplomas and BTECs which are all equivalent to one A Level. We also encourage students to broaden their skills and knowledge beyond the traditional curriculum, preparing them for the challenges of University and the workplace by offering a range of activities including the Extended Project Qualification (EPQ) and the Queen’s Diploma.
The skills acquired through sport, the visual arts, music, performing arts, outdoor pursuits and a myriad of other activities become increasingly valuable in the 21st Century. The Co-Curricular programme aims to complement the academic curriculum and provide ‘something for everyone’, with 100+ unique options. It gives opportunities for Queen’s College students to experience a variety of engaging activities. The programme aims to develop different skills and experiences and encourage students to challenge themselves and pursue their passions.
The Queen’s Diploma is a sixth form initiative developed to prepare our young adults for and strengthen their opportunities in early adulthood and later life. It is an exciting initiative that inspires our students to extend themselves beyond the usual. The Diploma becomes a key ingredient in application writing: highlighting transferable skills and desirable character traits, and providing examples for competency-based questions on which they will later rely. Through this Diploma, our students will build new skills, gain a range of attributes and develop a habit of lifelong learning and commitment to citizenship. Students work to achieve at least 150 credits towards the Queen’s Diploma over 13-15 months with a graduation at the end. Students can pick which credits they would like to gain across the four strands. Read more
