Entry Requirements

The basic entry requirement onto most courses is a minimum of a grade 6 at GCSE in an appropriate subject, however those students who embark on A Level studies with a grade 7 or above are likely to find the transition much easier. In some cases there may be further restrictions e.g. a minimum of a grade 6 in Maths to do Physics. Please see the following individual subject pages for further details. Students must also have achieved at least a grade 4 in both Maths and either English Language or Literature to qualify for entry into the Sixth Form. The full A Level qualification will be assessed at the end of Year 13 and will consist of three papers each of two hours duration. These will be made up of a range of multiple-choice, short answer and extended answer essay questions. Each paper is synoptic testing the students’ knowledge of the entire two year course.
