SIXTH FORM ENTRY REQUIREMENTS
To pursue A levels you will need a minimum of 5 grade Cs at GCSE or equivalent. These grades must come from at least 4 different subjects. They will usually have to include an A*, A or B in your chosen subjects.
The normal course load is four subjects at AS dropping to three in Year 13. Some of the applied A levels can be taken as Double or Single Awards. A Double Award is the equivalent of two A levels and therefore has twice the timetable allocation.
HOW TO APPLY
1. Read the Sixth Form Prospectus carefully.
2. Talk to your current teachers about the courses, your suitability for them and ensure each teacher completes a recommendation code in the subject choices table, on the application form.
