Oldham Sixth Form College opened in September 1992 and has enjoyed consistent success.As a non-selective institution, the College often accepts students that other local sixth forms turn down, giving them the opportunity to work and succeed alongside students with much higher levels of ability. Our student body currently consists of over 2300 full time 16-19 year olds, to whom we offer the widest choice of Advanced Level subjects in the area.
Our students have access to the Internet, the College VLE ‘MyDay’ and e-mail facilities. Interactive whiteboards are available in classrooms and laboratories and there are also twelve additional study areas and two Learning Support classrooms, all furnished with computers, where students can work in groups. In 2011, the College opened the Regional Science Centre, a unique facility which not only houses our previously over-subscribed science provision but also allows us to work with local primary and secondary schools, and in partnership with Higher Education. This work will further support the regeneration of the town and wider region through the provision of highly skilled scientists for the future.
