SWCHS Sixth Form Open Evening

Presented by SWCHS

Saffron Walden County High School Sixth Form would like to welcome prospective Year 12 parent/carers and students to visit the school and attend a talk in Saffron Hall with our Director of Sixth Form, Amy Kennedy. 

If you just wish to look around, there is no need to book, but if you would like to attend a talk given by the Headteacher and Director of Sixth Form, you will need to book a seat in Saffron Hall.

There will be three talks in Saffron Hall at 5pm, 6:30pm and 8pm. 
Each talk will last approximately 45 minutes. If you are booking for the 8pm talk, please note that the rest of the school site will close at 8pm. You will not be able to look around the school after the 8pm talk; you will need to look around before it.

There will also be activities and demonstrations in classrooms for each subject, with teachers and students on hand to answer any questions that you may have.   
Our current Sixth Form students will be on hand as tour guides throughout the evening. We would suggest allowing up to 90 minutes for a tour with one of our Sixth Form tour guides, or you are welcome to wander round independently.
