Most students attempting A level courses will have more than this minimum. In subjects not taught at GCSE a 5 in a related subject is required (for example, a 5/6 in English would enable a student to study Politics). All students entering year 12 would normally be expected to have achieved GCSE Grades 9 – 4 in English and Mathematics. Students without these qualifications will be helped to attain them early in their year 12 programme.
