Sixth Form at Wellington
Wellington College Bangkok opened its doors to Junior School classes in August 2018 with many of our students continuing their journey here through the exciting Senior School years. We are now delighted to announce that our Sixth Form will open in August 2024. We are accepting students already studying for their IGCSEs at Wellington and also welcoming students currently studying at other schools. Please contact us in Admissions to find out more about Bangkok’s finest Sixth Form option.
Message From The Master
A Wellington Sixth Former is confident but not arrogant. Motivated and hard working, but not narrowly focused. Friendly and positive. Successful.
And the Sixth Form is an extraordinary time in your life. No more school uniform (though the dress code is still quite formal). Teaching a Sixth Former is like teaching an adult. You only study a few subjects – but you study them really deeply.
Once you get to this age you realise that you actually can change the world. People younger than you have done so. You realise that waiting to be told what to do is for children. You realise that the future is in your own hands. Yes, the school supports you every step of the way. The kind of help that you would expect from the world-renowned Wellington College. But this, now, really is your life. Time to live it!
Sixth Form Spaces
Our Sixth Form is located in our state-of-the-art Skylight building. Students will enjoy a special set of newly created rooms on the fifth floor with a panoramic view. Classes are held in the Skylight building and after August 2025 in the newly built Crowthorne building.
The Wellington College Sixth Form Award
To mark the long-anticipated launch of our A-level programmes, Wellington College is delighted to be able to provide a strictly limited number of Sixth Form Awards.
These Awards, value 1 million THB each, are available to promising students across Bangkok who are keen to take advantage of Wellington's outstanding programmes of study in preparation for university entrance and beyond.
Wellington’s Sixth Form (the final two years of school, Years 12 and 13) represents the height of a student’s ambition and achievement. The facilities are exceptional. The quality of focus on each individual student’s unique pathway is second to none. Our expectations are limitless. Wherever in the world you want to go next, and whatever you want to study, our Sixth Form programmes have you covered. ‘Extras’ such as the Extended Project Qualification, Global Citizenship and Service, Sport, Enrichment, Wellbeing are standard.
We provide support, guidance and step-by-step help for university applications anywhere on the planet. And the extra that being part of the Wellington family of schools – in the UK and around the world – brings: it’s incalculable.
