Lowestoft Sixth Form College is an innovative purpose built college and the only sixth-form college in Suffolk. The college is a member of the SFCA (Sixth Form Colleges Association), AOC (Association of Colleges) and ACER (Association of Colleges Eastern Region). It opened in September 2011 and replaced the then Lowestoft Sixth Form Consortium, a shared sixth form provision which ran at the town's three high schools.
