Creating Your Future

 

There are a number of routes through the Sixth Form, but it is important to consider your interests, strengths, present level of achievement and career goals before finally deciding which route is right for you. Make use of the UCAS website to see what expectations universities have of Sixth Formers for their courses.


Option 1: Level Two Courses
Level two courses run for just one year through the Lower Sixth. These are recommended for students who do not achieve the minimum requirements for AS and A2 Level courses (see below). If students choose this route we would recommend organising regular work experience to enhance their opportunities once they complete the year.


Option 2: Level Three Courses
Level 3 courses develop analytical skills and understanding of complex issues. You will need to have achieved six GCSEs at Grade C or above, with at least two Bs, to be accepted onto the Diploma, AS and A2 courses.
