Sixth Form Admission Policy Consultation

Sixth Form Admissions Arrangements for September 2026 Entry

Between 1st October 2025 and 12th November 2025, we are consulting on our Year 12 Admissions Arrangements for September 2026 entry. Previously entry requirements for the sixth form were 5 GCSE grade 4’s, including English Language. 

From September 2026 this will be 5 GCSE grade 5’s and English Language at a minimum of a grade 4.

The rationale for this is to provide clearer guidance to students of the academic requirements of sixth form. We also feel that this adjustment will ensure students are better prepared for the rigours of A Level study and support the long term mental health of our young people.
