Highdown School is a very special place.  The Sixth Form is a vibrant and exciting place in which to study, develop and mature.  The outstanding opportunities for personal growth are second to none here.  Our sixth formers are fantastic young people who go beyond Highdown able to meet the challenges of life with confidence.
