Ofsted

As part of a wider inspection of Hellesdon High School in October 2026, we're proud to say Hellesdon Sixth Form was praised by inspectors for being an 'inclusive' and 'ambitious' setting where students are able to achieve strong outcomes. 

Our teaching staff were commended for their adaptability and the confidence of our pupils was also applauded.

The benefits of having smaller class sizes was also commented on within the report, with inspectors noting that this, alongside personalised support and dedicated facilities further enhances our students' learning experience. 

Our students spoke positively to inspectors about Hellesdon Sixth Form, complimenting the high levels of support they receive. While Ofsted praised the way we help our students prepare for local and national employment through our 'well-planned' programme of events and conferences.
