Successful Applications
After applications are received, students will be invited to interview with a member of the Sixth Form or Leadership Team. References may also be requested from the external applicants’ current school. From here, letters will be sent to students, offering conditional places, or advising that we cannot offer a place. Any student who is not offered admission into the Sixth Form will be informed in writing of the reasons. Students will be offered the right of appeal to the Head Teacher if the need arises.
On results day, students will be offered places on the following conditions:
- Students choosing a suitable combination of courses and there being sufficient space on these courses
- Students choosing a suitable combination of courses and there being sufficient students to enable the courses to run
- Students meeting the entrance requirements for sixth form and their chosen courses
Choosing Subjects
It is important that students carefully consider your subject choices before joining us. Students are encouraged to consider the following, when making their decisions
- What subjects do you enjoy?
- What subjects are you good at?
- Do you understand what is involved in the study of the subjects - topics covered, amount of coursework/exams, deadlines/expectations
If you have a particular university course in mind it may be worth using the UCAS website to check course entry requirements.
The Russell Group of Universities have published a guide to helping you choose Post-16 courses called Informed Choices.
