The 3.6 version of Python doesn't seem to have been added to the official repositories for Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. However there are others that have created repositories for it, among them J Fernyhough. You can add and install Python 3.6 via his repo:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:jonathonf/python-3.6
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install python3.6
