ST LAWRENCE COLLEGE IN
RAMSGATE HAS SEEN AN UPSURGE
IN PUPIL NUMBERS, INCLUDING
INCREASED INTEREST IN ITS SIXTH
FORM FOR LOCAL DAY PUPILS. THE
SCHOOL OFFERS AN EXCELLENT
ACADEMIC EDUCATION ALONGSIDE
MANY EXTRACURRICULAR ACTIVITIES
AND OPPORTUNITIES TO PROVIDE
THE PERFECT STEPPING STONE TO A
SUCCESSFUL UNIVERSITY
APPLICATION AND CAREER BEYOND.
With a traditional A-level curriculum that the
school believes offers the best route into top
universities, St Lawrence College combines
small and supportive classes with a vibrant
and happy environment in which to work.
There is a wide and varied subject choice of
A levels and extensive contact time with
specialist teachers.
Facilities are outstanding, from the new
Science, Art and Design Technology Centre,
to the purpose-built theatre and the top-class
sports amenities. Of even greater importance
however, is the school culture, where
individual pupils are encouraged and
supported to excel and are prepared for life
beyond school.

There is a close sense of community in the
school, with new pupils welcomed and strong
friendships formed that last a lifetime.
University guidance is very detailed and
includes additional classes for those
considering applications for courses like
medicine, leading to a very good success rate.
The generous provision of scholarships and
bursaries allows many local pupils the chance
to have an education that would otherwise be
beyond their means. Sixth form academic
scholarships are awarded to pupils who show
the greatest academic potential and perform
well in the Sixth Form Scholarship
Examination. Scholarships are also awarded
into the sixth form for pupils with outstanding
ability in art, drama, music or sport.
To find our more, visit the Sixth Form Open
Evening on Friday 7th December and/or
arrange an individual visit to impartially
discuss the best academic options for A levels
and beyond.
