Sixth Form Open Evening
Wednesday 19th November 2025 6.00pm
Students in year 11 at The Blandford School and other
schools are invited to attend our Sixth Form Open Evening. There will be a main
presentation in the school hall by Mr Smith (Deputy Headteacher) and Mrs Moore
(Head of Sixth Form) at 6.00pm. After the presentation there will be an
opportunity for you to speak to subject teachers, current students and the
Sixth Form team about the courses available in the Sixth Form to help you
decide on the best options for your education following your GCSEs in 2026.
