Sixth Form Tutorial Programme
Students at Stretford Grammar School have a weekly tutorial session.
The aim of these sessions is to promote effective study habits, provide advice to allow our students to make informed choices about their post 18 options, support them to make competitive applications to their chosen courses or apprenticeships, and to prepare them for the realities of life in a professional working environment. We encourage the leadership role of students within our community and the programme highlights the values we expect our sixth formers to uphold as role models within our school.
The information below outlines key features of our programme.
