Entry Requirements 2026 (to be read in conjunction with our Admissions Policy Entry 2026, available below)

Please note: Following the removal of Government funding and the School’s necessary decision to change its Sixth Form curriculum from the International Baccalaureate Diploma to A Levels in September 2026, we would like to clarify the entry requirements for admission to our Sixth Form from that date. 

All candidates must achieve a minimum grade 6 in the following GCSE subjects (or equivalent): English Language or English Literature, Mathematics, and two Sciences. These requirements ensure that students have a balanced foundation of prior knowledge and remain eligible to request a programme change in the future. 

In addition to these core requirements, students must also meet the subject-specific entry criteria for the A Level subjects they wish to study. In line with our Admissions Policy, this means achieving a grade 7 at GCSE for the chosen subject, and a grade 8 for Further Mathematics. These standards reflect the same level of eligibility previously required for IB Diploma Higher Level subjects.
