At The Sixth Form, we’re proud of our extensive offer of Expressive Arts courses and the facilities and opportunities that we can provide students.
Teachers are practitioners and examiners: All the teachers in this department are working artists / designers and the Head of Department is the Credible Specialist for Graphic Design and an external moderator for A Level.
Specialist studios and equipment: Studio access is available 5 days a week from 8.30am till 5.00pm. All 3 studios are purpose built with specialist printing, photography and design equipment. There is up to date photography equipment to borrow and loan as well as industry standard software such as Adobe Creative Cloud.
Exhibitions and Work Experience: All students exhibit regularly both within College and in and around Bolton. Students run their own makers art and design stall in Bolton Market: they make, design, produce all their own products, price and sell their work – all profit is kept by the students.

Find out what some of our former Expressive Arts students have done after leaving B6:
Second-year students at The Sixth Form Bolton have recently begun hearing back from their university applications, with several receiving offers to study Medicine and Veterinary Science. Anya Patel, a former Sharples School pupil who studies A Level Biology, Chemistry and Psychology alongside the Honours Programme with EPQ and Core Maths, was delighted to receive an offer from the University of Nottingham to study Veterinary Medicine and Surgery.
Earlier this term, two members of staff from The Sixth Form Bolton represented the college at Bett 2026 in London.
Three B6 students were delighted to share with us that they are running as candidates to become a Youth Member of Parliament (MP).
