Lancing has a very popular and thriving Sixth Form where existing pupils welcome a strong group of new pupils each year. The school deliberately grows in the Sixth Form, adding about 50 new pupils to the existing cohort. Our new pupils come from a wide variety of previous schools to make their experience of Lancing a success.
