Sixth Form life at Rendcomb College is not only about working hard on academic courses but also about being part of a friendly and supportive community, contributing to the leadership and development of the school and trying new things.

Our dedicated Sixth Form House, named Garden House, is an integral part of this Sixth Form experience; with excellent facilities for independent living and working, Garden House has been expressly designed to better prepare each student for life beyond Rendcomb.

Students in the Upper Sixth spend two separate weeks taking responsibility for themselves and enjoy much greater levels of freedom.

Students manage their own budget for the week - they shop, cook, clean and do their own laundry. One evening per week they also put their cooking skills to the test entertaining a few chosen members of staff. The experience of Garden House equips our students with the skills required for independent living before they head off on their chosen path, whether university, a gap year or the world of work.

With this well-rounded education our students leave as enthusiastic, well-grounded and versatile young adults who are excellently equipped to take their place in, and contribute to, society.
