About Wilberforce Sixth Form College

About Wilberforce Sixth Form College

The City of Hull and surrounding region is experiencing rapid and exciting change, which has the  potential to transform opportunities for young people in the area. The College occupies a large  university style campus on the eastern edge of the city. Although our primary focus is to serve  students from secondary schools in the City of Hull, our strong reputation means that we also  attract many students from the surrounding Holderness towns and villages.

Wilberforce College inspires learners to develop a passion for knowledge and love for learning.  Our students receive a truly holistic education through an outstanding enrichment offer, including  our upskilling programme, employability and workplace links, trips and visits, Student Council and  the Excellence High Flyers pathway. The College has received several accolades in recognition  of it’s outstanding work. In September 2020 we were awarded Microsoft Showcase College  status making us the only sixth form in the UK to have achieved this high standard. In addition  to this, we are the only educational establishment in Hull and the East Riding to be named as a  Demonstrator College by the DfE. This has enabled our staff to use their expertise to support and  train other teachers, locally and nationally, in delivering digital learning. In 2018, the College was  awarded Maths Centre for Excellence status by the DfE. As one of 21 centres awarded this, we  demonstrated the commitment, capacity and system leadership to drive innovation and improvement both at Wilberforce College and beyond.
