There is a hugely popular and successful Senior Sports programme, consisting of a weekly games session in which students are provided with regular training and compete in fixtures in the following activities: netball, hockey, cross-country, rugby union, football, and cricket. Pupils who choose to take Physical Education as an A Level option follow the OCR H555 A Level Physical Education course. The course focuses on Anatomy and Physiology, Biomechanics, Sports Psychology and Sociocultural factors affecting sports. Students are assessed in one practical activity and complete three written examinations in the summer of Year 13.
Sixth Form admission is based on a combination of interview, present school report (for external applications) and performance at GCSE. As a guide, applicants should have received a combined total of at least 36 points in their seven best GCSEs and they should have achieved at least a grade 6 in the GCSE subjects they wish to take forward as their A Level subject choices and preferably a 7-9 grade.
