Step Three – Taster Days, Assessment and Offers
Girls join our Sixth Form from a wide range of schools. New entrants to the Sixth Form are expected to achieve at least five GCSEs at Grade 7-9s, including a minimum of Grade 6 in English and Mathematics (or the equivalent in international qualifications).
Details of our A Level courses, Elective subjects on offer and specific entry requirements are available in our Sixth Form Programme Guide. We invite prospective pupils to sit our Entrance Assessment examination and attend our Sixth Form taster days to experience life in our Sixth Form, as well as meet with the Heads of Department of the subjects that they wish to study.
We ask for a copy of a recent school report and results in mock GCSE examinations, when available. We make conditional offers for places in December for the following September intake, which are confirmed once your daughter receives her GCSE results.
We are pleased to make individual arrangements for Taster Days, assessment and admission.
Step Four – Accepting a place for your daughter
Upon making an offer of a place for your daughter, we will ask you to complete our acceptance documentation, provide a copy of your daughter’s birth certificate or passport, and to make the deposit payment of £500 to secure your daughter’s place with us.
The deposit will be refunded to you when your daughter leaves the school. There are a number of opportunities for girls and their families joining the school to get to know their teachers and peers before they start with us, including Welcome and Information Evenings, Taster Days, Welcome Days and other events, to ensure the transition to the High School is smooth and enjoyable for all.
