About Us

Where it all started in 1997

Supporting sixth form leaders for 29 years

• Netsixthform.co.uk evolved from Senior Press which was set up in 1997 by AHT and Director of Sixth Form, Michael Senior, to provide one-day training events for sixth form leaders, packed full of sessions as well as resources to use in tutorial time.

• The popularity of our digital resources and weekly Heads of Sixth Newsletters has created a community of 3000+ sixth form leaders using our site which we rebranded in 2019 as 'netsixthform.co.uk' to reflect the special niche it serves.

• The core of our resources is Getting the Grades Video Tutorial Scheme for KS5 which provides a complete scheme for sixth form leaders to use in assemblies and tutorial time to develop the skills, mindset and behaviours for academic success. We know that these skills need regular development over two years to really make them happen.
• We have since added an entire and growing CPD Zone for sixth form leaders to use as part of their membership along with a suite of webinars to support the varied role of a sixth frorm leader.

• There is now a scheme for Getting the Grades KS4 to help students get the grades at GCSE so they maximise their options at post-16.

• More features are due to come on stream now we have our new website launched in 2026.
