	Sixth form college - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A sixth form college is an educational institution in the United Kingdom (England, Wales and Northern Ireland) or Hong Kong and Malta where students aged 16 to 18 complete post-compulsory further education qualifications, such as A-levels.
		The first comprehensive intake Sixth Form Colleges in England were established at the end of the 1960s and they have since proved popular with students, their parents, and other groups in the community.
		Until 1992, these colleges were controlled and funded by local education authorities (LEAs), but the Further and Higher Education Act, 1992 transferred all institutions within the sector to the FEFC, a national agency with strategic responsibility for the operation of general FE colleges.
