Level Up

The Sixth Form at St Alban's is about more than just academic achievement. Our Catholic ethos is at the very heart of all we do, which means development of the whole student is paramount to our planning. The Level Up programme is a carefully planned series of activities at each juncture in the year designed to facilitate development throughout the course of the year. Or 4 P's (Pride, Participation, Progression and Participation) permeate the programme.
