uniform and with adult environment, students called staff by first names. The College has always had a strong and involved NUS Student Union. With elected Male & Female Presidents, and Elected Treasurer. The Bramcote College SU had a good community involvement, running Annual Charity Days, and supporting the Nottingham Marathon by providing marshals for a section of the shorter course. The Student's Union also organises an Annual College Ball, for both years 12 & 13 to celebrate the end of term in May, before examinations commence in the summer. The performance of the 6th Form is always dependent on the intake, as the college does not have any entrance requirements. Results were seen to dip, after the nearby Bilborough College opened its new building, and attracted more students from the school. In 2006 Ofsted found the 6th form to be "Very Good" compared to the whole school which only received a satisfactory rating In 2008 the performance of the College had the highest Contextual Value Added CVA score in the Broxtowe area. Bramcote College gained a new role following the Federation of Bramcote Hills, with Bramcote Park & Alderman White, becoming the Federation 6th Form. Bramcote Park again are now sharing the 6th Form of Bramcote Hills alongside Alderman White. The name was altered to "Bramcote Hills Sixth Form College". Following the Federation a £500,000 renovation project of the 6th Form accommodation was constructed in 2008. However, as explained below the building work found problems with the structure of the existing building.

David Soulsby left the role of Head of 6th Form in 2008 to be replaced by Faye Parker.
