Enrolment & Admissions

One-Year A Level students are usually expected to have completed some study of the subject previously (e.g. an AS level or equivalent experience). However, each case is considered individually.

We accept applications throughout the year, and students may begin in September or, in exceptional cases, join mid-year.

To apply, simply click Apply Now below to contact our Admissions Team and arrange a consultation and interview with the Principal or Vice Principal.
