Facilities

Space to study

The Hunter Resource Centre has first class accommodation for independent study and revision. It houses banks of computers from where you can access the internet, your emails or our virtual learning environment, Google Drive. There are also a wide range of the more traditional learning resources, which are all provided for reference and borrowing.

Space to relax

We have a large and lively refectory area where you will find our DSFC café. Here you can gather to make new friends, meet old ones, have lunch, chat, chill or catch up with the latest news on our flat screen TVs!

Sports and Leisure

The stunning ‘Freeman’s Quay’ complex boasts a state of the art swimming pool, fitness suite, dance studio and a large sports hall, all of which you will be able to access as a student at the Sixth Form Centre, either as part of your studies or your personal leisure time.
