The gateway to a world of opportunities.

At the Blue Coat Sixth Form, every student is known. Individual growth and development is a priority, providing personalised support for every student. 

Blue Coat Sixth Form has a strong reputation for success and a long history of providing exceptional education to students across Greater Manchester. They care for students whilst they are with them and we care about them once they have left. They are part of a family and a tradition that dates back to 1834.

The success of the students at Blue Coat is a tribute to their hard work and self belief, supported by structures that have been put in place to ensure that every individual has the opportunity to achieve their goals.

Blue Coat is an outstanding multi-faith, multi-ethnic and multi-talented Sixth Form, committed to academic excellence and the personal growth and enrichment of all students, who leave not only with the highest grades and qualifications, but also a CV that reflects the wide range of opportunities for personal development and leadership that the sixth form provides. Whether an existing Year 11 student at Blue Coat, or a new blue to the Sixth Form, they will build on students strengths, broaden their horizons, and support them to take responsibility for their own future and rise to the challenges, choices and opportunities that will affect the rest of their lives.
