Facilities

Rainford High Sixth Form is situated in a newly refurbished building that provides an effective working environment for all of our students and staff. We always strive to encourage our students to be brilliant and to achieve this we support and provide them with the very best facilities and resources.

Students have easy access to a wealth of ICT and multimedia equipment, including digital cameras, camcorders and iMac studios in several subject areas. With a ratio of 2:1 (students to laptops and PCs), students never find themselves without the equipment they need during study periods.
