Entry Requirements

In general, a 7 at GCSE is the minimum grade you will need to achieve in a subject to be able to study it at Emanuel at A level. Additionally, if you wish to study Mathematics or Physics at A level you will need at least an 8 at GCSE, and those studying Physics at A level must also be studying A level Mathematics. In addition, we require the average grade criteria to be met. This standard indicates that a pupil will be able to study independently, and can successfully access the very much more challenging material presented by the A-level courses. The AQA course we follow has a strong scientific and statistical basis but also requires a strong command of language, and the ability to analyse information critically. We therefore recommend candidates have at least a 6 in Double Science, Mathematics, English Language and English Literature.
