The Sixth Form Block was completed in 1993 as a dedicated centre for the use of Sixth Form students. Work first began in January 1992. It was opened by BGS alumnus Dr Len Medlock, who had helped fund the building through the Len Medlock Trust.
The building is internally connected to the main school (intersecting close to the Junior Common Room), and its primary entrance opens onto the Mart Yard. It is situated roughly where the bike sheds and the swimming pool used to be.
Since opening, the Sixth Form Block has been periodically improved and extended. In the mid 2000s a ground floor conference room was added.
2018 extension
On 21 November 2018 a first floor extension was opened by David Medlock, the son of Len Medlock.
