SPOTLIGHT - Sixth Form Enrichment: Criminology
Each year, our Sixth Form students take part in Enrichment — a personalised programme designed to help them explore new interests, develop essential skills, and prepare for life beyond the classroom. With a wide range of opportunities to choose ...from, students select an area that aligns with their passions and future aspirations.

This year, one of the exciting options offered by Mr Prendergast is Criminology.

Last week, our Criminology students delivered outstanding presentations on thought-provoking topics — from crimes that were once illegal but no longer are, to offences that differ across international borders. Their work showcased impressive research, critical thinking, and confident presentation skills, all of which are invaluable for future study and career pathways.

This week, the group are looking forward to welcoming a Senior Policy Adviser to discuss the police use of biometrics, facial recognition, and surveillance. It’s a fantastic opportunity for students to connect their classroom learning with real-world issues and deepen their understanding of modern criminological challenges.

SIMON BALLE SIXTH FORM
Outstanding teaching and learning is key to our success.

However, at Simon Balle Sixth Form, we aim to develop the whole child. Our students benefit from our enrichment programme and the wide range of opportunities available in order to grow as well-rounded ...individuals. It’s important to us that Sixth Form students engage with the school community, take lead positions of responsibility across the all-through school and build confidence and key transferable skills ready to leave Simon Balle at the end of their A levels.

We believe the journey to YOUR FUTURE should be about MORE THAN JUST GREAT A LEVELS.
