Sixth Form
The sixth form pathway is the most academic route, suited to students who enjoy studying a range of subjects in more depth.
Entry usually requires higher GCSE grades – typically grade 5 or above in English and Maths, plus grade 6 in the subjects you wish to study. Some subjects may ask for a grade 7.
Students normally choose three to four subjects and study in a school sixth form or a college environment.
