working with us

At Blackpool Sixth, we’re not just a high-achieving sixth form; we’re a springboard to success for our students. We pride ourselves on inspiring learning, developing character, and building futures, providing everyone with excellent teaching and rich opportunities for both academic growth and personal development.

While we are relatively small, with just under 2,000 students and approximately 200 dedicated staff members, this size fosters a truly close and caring community. We proudly serve the entire Fylde Coast area, including vibrant towns like Poulton-le-Fylde and Lytham St Annes, as well as Blackpool and its surrounding villages. This regional reach means we embrace a diverse and dynamic student body.

Blackpool Sixth is more than just a workplace; it’s a friendly, positive, and incredibly supportive environment and our staff are highly committed to the needs and aspirations of our students.

Our core values are at the heart of everything we do

We believe in:

Respect – for ourselves, for others, for the rule of law, and for the environment.
Inclusion is paramount, as we value everyone individually.
We foster Excellence & High Aspirations, striving to be the best we can be.
We uphold Integrity in all our actions.
You’ll find an atmosphere of Enthusiasm, where we learn because we love to learn, and teach because we love to teach.
We also encourage Global Citizenship, actively working to improve our world and broaden our horizons.
And we offer unwavering Support, helping everyone to succeed.

Our dedication to professional development extends to everyone. It’s not just about our teaching staff; both our teaching and support staff actively participate in a comprehensive annual program of Learning and Development (L&D). This program is tailored to college and individual’s needs, supported by regular performance development reviews and new in post reviews. We believe in empowering every member of our team to grow, learn, and excel, because when you thrive, our students thrive.

Are you ready to contribute to an outstanding educational community that values growth, collaboration, and making a tangible difference in young lives? We’d love to hear from you!
