Student Success at Cadbury Sixth Form College
Rachel Price was formerly a pupil at Turves Green Girls School and Technology College and studied Chemistry, Biology and Sport. She went on to study Zoology at the University of Derby.

“The teachers are excellent and everyone encourages success. The new library has improved greatly and is a wonderful place to work."

"Start revising early, people in the college may seem very intelligent but don't worry, it's what you make of your exam.”

06/12/11: Lord Hunt Of Kings Heath Returns To Cadbury:

On the 2nd of December, Lord Hunt of Kings Heath made a return visit to the College to explain to AS Politics and Law students the role that the House of Lords plays in scrutinising and passing legislation as well as the make-up of the institution. He then fielded incisive questions from students Omar Saleh, Shimon Atunde, Will Gregory, Frank Lindsay and Humzah Sheikh on a variety of issues such as nuclear weapons in Iran to the economic cuts. Hopefully, this will lead to a return visit to the Houses of Parliament later in the year.

18/11/11: Upcoming Immersion Period:

The college timetable is going to change for a short period to allow for a variation in lesson delivery styles. Lessons for each subject will be effectively condensed into a single half day block of time either a morning or an afternoon. For instance a subject in block A will be replaced by a morning session on Tuesday. Therefore you could study Chemistry all morning followed by Art in the afternoon.

The full timetable will be as follows:

Day

10.00 to 12.30

1:30 to 4:00

Tues 6th December

Block A

Block B

Wed 7th December

Block C

--

Thurs 8th December

Block D

Block E

Fri 9th December

Block L

Block U

 

If you have any queries, you should see your tutor.

18/11/11: Our Open Day Was A Great Success:

On Saturday 12th November, Cadbury College hosted its annual Open Day. The event was attended by well over a thousand visitors. The day provided an opportunity for prospective students and their parents to explore the excellent facilities and displays and to talk to individual members of staff about subject information, careers and progression advice. The day was a great success and there was a busy and friendly atmosphere. The student reps and helpers contributed enormously to the success of the day.

The day included drama and music performances as well as the Principal’s talk and many prospective students took the opportunity to apply online at the college to ensure they will be interviewed for a place.
