Families are strongly encouraged to get in touch and arrange a visit to the Senior School or Sixth Form ahead of registering. This will give you a chance to see a regular school day, enjoy a tour by current pupils, and speak to relevant subject and pastoral staff.

We also hold an Open Morning in September every year, as well as a ‘Life In the Sixth Form’ open evening in November
All prospective families must register on our admissions portal to start their admissions journey. They must also complete an application form, which has an application fee of £50.00.
Students will be invited to a taster day in February, where they can come and spend the day in the Sixth form with our own Year 11 pupils, and experience lessons in the subjects they are looking to study at A Level.
Entry into the Sixth Form is conditional on GCSE results. We ask that students reach an academic benchmark in GCSEs (generally 45 points from the student’s best eight subjects).
