Taster Day 2025 - Monday 30th June
Monday 30th June 2025 is our Sixth Form Taster Day, an opportunity for students to experience a taste of sixth form life at PHSG.
A Levels are a big step up from GCSE and the taster sessions are intended to give students a flavour of what they could be studying next year and what is expected of them in any particular subject. There will also be chances to speak to the sixth form team and get any queries about studying with us next year answered.
Students will have an opportunity to get information and ask questions about Oxford and Cambridge pathways, as well as medicine, veterinary and dentistry career routes. Students will also be learning about leadership opportunities available to them here at PHSG.
Any students hoping to join us in September 2025 are welcome to come along, including those who have not yet applied.
Please bring a pen and some paper or a notepad.
