Cowley is a special place. Every year, we welcome students into the Sixth Form from many schools across St Helens and further afield. We pride ourselves on the support offered to every individual that joins Cowley and truly believe that every one of our students has an amazing potential to succeed.
Cowley is a larger than average Sixth Form which means we offer a wide portfolio of courses to our students. This ranges from traditional A-levels to vocational qualifications and career-based courses. Whatever your decision, you can guarantee that you will be taught by experts in the subject who are willing to go that extra mile to ensure that you achieve your true potential.

We were delighted to welcome former student Paul Booth back to Cowley Sixth Form as part of our Cowley Conversations assembly series.
Paul shared his inspiring career journey since leaving Cowley, giving students a real insight into the different pathways that led him to his current role in Nuclear Engineering at Amentum. From post-18 decisions to building experience in a highly specialised sector, Paul spoke honestly about the challenges, opportunities and lessons he’s learned along the way.
Hearing directly from alumni working in cutting-edge industries is invaluable for our students as they consider their own next steps. Thank you, Paul, for giving back and helping to inspire the next generation 👏
