How do I apply for Sixth Form?

Internal students: 

Year 11 students can apply for Sixth Form once the application process opens on our Open Evening. Students will apply via a Microsoft Form and will receive an interview invitation shortly after applying. We welcome students to their personal interview and encourage parents/ carers to attend. During the interview process, students will have the opportunity to discuss their aspirational choices and predicted grades. Shortly after their interview, students will receive a conditional offer letter. 

External students: 

External students are welcomed into our school for Sixth Form Open Evening and are encouraged to apply through our Microsoft Form application form. If you are unable to make our Open Evening, we highly recommend getting in touch with our Key Stage 5 Progress Leader Chelsea Lyons, who will arrange a tour of the school with you. External students will be invited to an interview and shortly afterwards will receive a conditional offer letter.
