Before joining the school
In order to welcome you to the Sixth Form and to prepare for the year ahead, an Induction Morning takes place before the start of term. This offers you the opportunity to meet with the Secondary Leadership Team, your tutor, other members of the Sixth Form, and to visit the classrooms and school grounds. This is a great opportunity to ask any questions you may have regarding your first year at Caxton College.
