How to Apply and Open Events

All applications for Homewood Sixth Form are made through the Kent Choices website. Homewood students have been e-mailed their username and login details to their school e-mail accounts and have received extra guidance in their lessons with their tutors in school. If you are still having difficulties, please use the following guides produced by the KCC team.

Search & ApplyPlease gather information from our departments on our Sixth Form webpages, browse our prospectus, and talk to your current teachers about your options, your predicted grades and your suitability for the courses. You should make your application using the Kent Choices website, ensuring that each selection is in a different option block.

References and personal statements will be required only for students who apply but are not currently at Homewood School. The preferred deadline for application is the 17th January for Homewood students. Applications from external students and late applications will be considered after that date as quickly as we can.
