Application

You don’t have to attend the school in order to apply to the Sixth Form. Students from other schools can apply by completing the form here . Every year we have a number of students who join us from other schools.

All students will have an options interview with a member of the leadership team in February to discuss course choices and suitability for studying them. Students who are expected to meet the grade criteria for their course choices and have a positive academic and attendance record will receive a letter offering a conditional place in the Sixth Form. The interviewer will use your predicted grades given in the January data collection which follow your first set of mock examinations. Students will select THREE options for which they are currently predicted to meet the entry requirements.

Following GCSE results, students who do not meet the minimum entry requirements for the Sixth Form, will be offered an appointment with the Head of Sixth Form in August to discuss alternative courses or other options.
