Students' Experience
I enrolled at Hillview in 2010 with a view to completing A-levels in Applied Business, Travel & Tourism, Drama & Theatre Studies and English Literature. Incredibly, I am now waiting to start a BA (Hons) in Business Management (Tourism) at The University of Greenwich.
My Hillview experience? It all started that September day when I was expected to start my courses. After a summer of worrying about the transition, I didn’t think I was ready. Fortunately I was: the move was a wonderful decision – the Sixth Form team guided me through every process and handed me the map of the school. From then on, I seemingly fitted nicely into the School’s outstanding ethos. Every student has a great ambition and Hillview allows these to be realised. My courses were extremely enriching and the standard of teaching is truly unbeatable. I’ve finally recognised that I can achieve my dream of Commercial Aviation and I promise you I would never have thought this before I started at Hillview.
Everybody is always so happy to be a part of the Hillview community and this makes every day that little bit better. The atmosphere is exciting and the school never seems to become monotonous. I’ve met some really incredible peers and with the help and guidance of the staff, I believe I am truly ready to go on to achieve greater things. I couldn’t recommend Hillview Sixth Form highly enough.

"I joined Hillview in Year 7 in 2003 and stayed as a student there until Year 13, completing my GCSEs and A Levels. I gained 12 GCSEs and 4 A Levels in : Dance, English, Drama and Geography and have continued my higher education at the University of Reading studying a BSc in Human Geography."
"My experience at Hillview was of a fond one and I will always be thankful for the education, advice and friendliness of the staff that the school gave me. The huge support from the Careers Advisor allowed me primarily the confidence to pursue a degree in a subject I really wanted to do and with the passionate help of the Sixth Form mentors completed my UCAS application and am very happy to be where I am now."
