Over 300 A-levels, BTECs, apprenticeships and the new T Levels across six schools and colleges make Telford an inspirational hub for learning, opportunity and achievement. Where will your learning take you?
Sixth-form students are an integral part of school life. They are very effective role models and often run clubs for younger pupils, who aspire to be like them. Sixth-form students take on a range of leadership roles to support school life. They are active in identifying new ways of improving the school experience for all.

Welcome to Newport Girls’ High School
For over a century, Newport Girls’ High School has been at the forefront of girls’ education—combining tradition with innovation to prepare young women for bright and ambitious futures. As a school with a proud heritage and a forward-thinking ethos, we are delighted to introduce you to NGHS6, our exceptional Sixth Form.
NGHS6 is a vibrant, ambitious, and supportive community where students are empowered to thrive both academically and personally. Whether you are continuing your journey with us from Year 11 or joining from another school, you will find a warm welcome and a wealth of opportunities to grow, lead, and succeed.
We are proud to be Shropshire’s top-performing state school and sixth form provider, and the only Sixth Form in the region to be rated ‘Outstanding’ by Ofsted in every category. These accolades reflect our unwavering commitment to excellence and the high aspirations we hold for every student.
At NGHS6, we offer more than just academic success. Our dedicated staff, inspiring curriculum, and wide-ranging enrichment programme ensure that every student is challenged, supported, and encouraged to reach their full potential. We foster a culture of curiosity, resilience, and independence—qualities that prepare our students not only for success at university and in their careers, but also for life beyond the classroom.
Our Sixth Formers are role models and leaders within the school community. They take on responsibilities, contribute to school life, and shape the future of NGHS through their ideas and energy. We are immensely proud of the confident, compassionate, and capable young people they become.
NGHS has it all; excellent results, outstanding pastoral care and leadership chances to maximise your university or apprenticeship application. We are now accepting applications for Year 12 places in September 2026. If you are in Year 11 now, why not find out more by visiting our website?
