EBS once again enjoyed an excellent turnout at its Sixth Form Open Evening, with families, prospective students, and members of the wider community filling the school to learn more about what makes our Sixth Form so special. The atmosphere was vibrant and welcoming, reflecting the strong sense of community that defines EBS.
Throughout the evening, a large number of current students took part by representing their subject areas, performing music, and acting as approachable points of information for visitors. Their enthusiasm and willingness to share their experiences gave guests a genuine insight into the supportive environment that EBS offers.
One of the most memorable moments came from the speeches delivered by Sarah Evans, Melissa Green, and Joseph Collings. Each spoke with confidence and warmth, painting a vivid picture of Sixth Form life. They highlighted the balance between academic challenge and personal growth, and their words resonated strongly with those considering joining the school.
EBS has long been known for attracting a strong intake into its Sixth Form, and in recent years the number of external students choosing to join has grown significantly. This increase is not only a testament to the school’s academic success but also to the reputation it has built for kindness, inclusivity, and a genuine community spirit. Feedback from previous cohorts consistently points to these qualities as the deciding factor in their choice of EBS.
The evening was therefore not just an opportunity to showcase subjects and achievements, but also a celebration of the values that underpin the Sixth Form: excellence, friendship, and opportunity. With such a positive response from visitors, EBS looks forward to welcoming another diverse and motivated group of students into its Sixth Form, continuing a tradition of success and community that has become its hallmark.
