Geography

Entry Requirements

Students considering transfer to King’s Sixth Form are required to meet the entry requirements of an average of grade 6 or higher across eight GCSE subjects, with a minimum of a grade 5 in both Mathematics and English Language (university matriculation requirements). Most subjects recommend a grade 7 - 9 in a subject to be studied at A Level, and this is compulsory for Mathematics and Science subjects. In addition, subjects with a large mathematical content, such as Economics, require a minimum of grade 7 in Mathematics. Nearly all students taking Geography at A Level will have passed GCSE Geography with at least a grade 6 or higher. Pupils will be allowed to join the course not having studied the subject at all but only after discussion with the Head of Department and if the pupil demonstrates suitable desire and aptitude.
