QUALIFICATIONS FOR ENTRY TO THE UPPER SCHOOL

The Upper School provides a demanding academic curriculum that requires both intellectual ability and a strong work ethic. It is therefore suitable only for boys who have both of these qualities.

Year 12 (age 16 and above)
ie candidates taking GCSE in May/June 2012

 The offer of a place is made on the basis of
• the candidate’s performance in the appropriate examination or test
• an interview
• a confidential report from the Head of the candidate’s present school

For those sitting GCSE examinations we require 18 points as a minimum entry requirement, where A* counts as 4 points, A as 3 points, B as 2 points, C as 0 points.
These should include (i) English Language, (ii) Mathematics and (iii) an A/A* grade in the four subjects to be studied at Advanced level, where appropriate.

Successful candidates are offered a place for two years of study that is subject to the College’s Standard Terms and Conditions.
