Aquinas College Aquinas College is a sixth form college in Stockport, UK. We strive to be a Catholic college for the whole community.

We are a Catholic community based on the Gospel values of freedom, justice and love. Aquinas College is a relaxed and friendly place, with a sense of mutual respect, identity and purpose. Relationships between staff and students are informal yet purposeful, and we have the following guidelines rather than a set of rules - be mindful of others and responsible for yourself. With no academic selection, we are one of the few genuinely open-access colleges around, but we have the highest expectations of all our students. We set rigorous standards of work and achievement and believe that every student deserves the best possible support to reach their full potential.

Our Lower Sixth Geography students recently visited Bramhall Park as part of their studies into the carbon cycle!

The trip was a fantastic opportunity to take learning beyond the classroom, exploring the role of natural environments in the carbon cycle and making connections between geographical theory and the world around them.

A brilliant example of how fieldwork helps bring Geography to life! 🍃📚
