Behind the Scenes: Sherfield School
With an impressive academic record and success in extra-curricular pursuits, the Sixth Formers at Sherfield School, Hampshire are going from strength-to-strength
The beautiful Victorian manor house that forms the main body of Sherfield School, Hampshire has undergone multiple interior modernisations over the years. The most recent of these is the multi-million-pound addition of a state-of-the-art Sixth-Form block and boarding house.
At Sherfield, pupils can choose up to four A-Level subjects, and alongside traditional options, like English and mathematics, they can also opt for more original subjects, such as computer science or fine art.

And given the array of options available to Sixth Formers, the school?s academic record is exceptional. Sherfield achieved a 100% pass rate among A-Level pupils in 2016, with 82% of grades falling in the A* to B bracket. In mathematics, which has proven to be one of the school?s biggest strengths, over half of A-Level pupils achieved an A*, with all pupils who studied further mathematics achieving either an A or an A* grade. Above, Sixth Formers can choose from a wide range of subjects at A-level
