Admission Sixth Form

We offer an academically focused post-16 curriculum which includes a broad range of A-level subjects and other courses. You can find out more with the resources below.

Entrance Criteria

Like all Sixth Forms we do ask students to have a minimum level of GCSE grades for acceptance on to our courses.  These are:

- an average point score of 4 or better across all GCSEs taken
- GCSE Grade 6 is needed to study for A levels in the particular subjects that have a higher tier GCSE paper (Languages, Mathematics, Sciences - Biology, Chemistry, Physics)
- Grades 6-5 in GCSE Combines Science will be sufficient to study any individual Science A level
- A GCSE resit can be taken in either Maths or English (but not both)

We have not set eligibility criteria for other subjects which means that you may study an A level without having studied it at GCSE, recognising there may be challenges in doing so.

Applications
