Progression from Year 12 to Year 13

The majority of courses followed in the Sixth Form are studied over two years, typically starting in Year 12 and being completed in Year 13.

At the end of the first year of study, most students will take internal Threshold Exams to ensure their suitability to progress to the second year of their courses. Grades achieved in these exams will be used in the process of determining potential grades for UCAS applications.

A letter from Mrs Tolley, Head of Sixth Form, explaining the 2021 Threshold Exams can be read here.
