About the College

King Edward VI College (KE6) is a Sixth Form College that was established in 1974 on the site of King Edward VI Grammar School in Nuneaton. The College now has approximately 1,500 students aged 16-19 years and 150 staff and is growing yearly. King Edward VI College prides itself on a friendly, personal approach and its ability to maintain a high level of success for all its students. One of the reasons for the success of the college is that students enjoy studying here, and the proportion of students completing their courses continues to be excellent and among the highest in the country. If student achievement is compared to their achievement at GCSE, calculations using official government measures of what is known as "value added" show our students to be achieving as well or better than would be expected from their starting point. All our staff are committed to giving students the best possible learning experience in their period in college and we aim to continue in the future the successes achieved by our students.
