Sixth Form Curriculum

We offer a choice of two different level 3 pathways that cover a broad range of academic, creative and vocational subjects. Both pathways allow progression to competitive universities, apprenticeships, or employment. There is also the opportunity, with agreement by the Head of Sixth Form, to re-take GCSE Maths and English Language as well as studying community languages to A-level. Courses are always under review.

ACADEMIC AND CREATIVE ARTS PATHWAY

General Entry Criteria: 5 GCSEs graded 9-6. Certain subjects require specific GCSEs at grade 6 or above.

Students can select three A-levels or two A-levels alongside the BTEC Level 3 Extended Certificate in Music Performance. Students can also opt to complete the Extended Project Qualification.

EXTENDED PROJECT QUALIFICATION

Students can opt to study the Extended Project Qualification (EPQ) alongside any of the pathways above. This is worth half an A level and involves students planning and producing an independent project of their choosing. This can be a written dissertation, investigation, performance, or an artifact.  In support of our students completing the Extended Project Qualification (EPQ), we partner with ‘Off the Curriculum’ who are an educational charity working across London on their academic journey.
