Two sites one sixth form
Students will be able to access both our Surrenden Site (Turner Free School) and Broadmead Site (Folkestone Academy).
The aim is to provide all students with the very best that our trust has to offer. All students will receive a chromebook to use for the duration of their studies making working at two sites much easier. All sixth form students benefit from having their own designated sixth form study areas across both sites.
Moving between Sites
Smart timetabling will make student movement across sites much easier as movement time will be built into the timetable. All sixth form students will be issued with an ID card that they will be able to use to register their attendance at each site.
At Turner Sixth Form we foster a culture of dedication, curiosity and ambition.
