Enrichment at Retford Oaks sixth form

We encourage our students to leave us as well-rounded adults, equipped with a range of life skills.

Growth mindset is an ethos running through our pastoral system and is core to our individualised programme, offering both challenge and personal development. Not only do employers and universities seek to recruit students with a wide range of interests and experiences, they are also looking for CVs and personal statements built with sophistication and confidence. We work to develop these skills by allocating specific time to personal development.
