The information below may be helpful and will be updated for 2023 entry later in the Summer.
All registered applicants will be asked to attend virtual assessments via Zoom. We expect to hold the Interview Day on Saturday 12 November 2022.
You will have interviews in each of the subjects nominated for Sixth Form study, plus a general interview with a senior member of staff. We will send more details about the assessment day closer to the time, but if you have any possible issue accessing a device with a webcam, please let us know when you make your application.
We found that Zoom interviews worked well for 16+ entry with less waiting for candidates between interviews and no need to travel. Interviews will still offer a chance to meet the staff and ask any questions.
Our decision letters for 2023 entry are sent to all candidates in at the end of November. Responses must be received by Monday 12 December 2022.
Our offer holders reception is a chance to meet staff, sixth formers and other prospective sixth formers. You’ll be able to hear from the Head of Sixth Form and ask any questions you may have. Parents are welcome to join us at the end of the session.
Once you have received your GCSE results, these should be sent to our Admissions Office who will confirm your place.
Induction events take place to help our new sixth formers settle in and find their way around.
