What to Study
A LEVELS
During an Ofsted inspection, our curriculum was described as the “jewel in the crown” of the school and we hope that you will be similarly impressed by the vast variety of choices that we offer. We pride ourselves on the breadth of opportunities that are available to our Sixth Form students.
LEVEL 3
Alternative to A Levels
Our Level 3 courses offer a wide range of work-related & vocational qualifications. Many have been designed in collaboration with industry and equip you with the skills and knowledge that employers are looking for, using a mixture of theoretical and practical activities. Don’t forget: You can combine many of these qualifications with the IBCP diploma courses to benefit from this route of study.
LEVEL 2
These one year courses offer a pathway for students who wish to progress onto a Level 3 or A Level qualification or onto employment. We offer a mix of GCSE and vocational courses which allow you to choose qualifications that suit your learning style.
