Entry to our Sixth Form is dependent on the student spending a Taster Day with us, when they will be interviewed by our Head of Sixth Form and take a Verbal Reasoning Paper. This is arranged following receipt of the Registration Form, fee and supporting documents. References and reports with predicted and mock GCSE grades are then requested from the current school.

Entry requirement - A place cannot be guaranteed for those not achieving 43 points in the summer although some concessions may be made for students who have been awarded consistently high effort grades as well as having a good disciplinary record, providing they are prepared to follow our advice on option choices.
