Criteria
Applications Process for September 2027 entry:
Please use this link to apply. Please also note we do NOT need an application via Kent Choices.
Students are encouraged to study 4 subjects in Year 12. Should a student wish instead to study 3 subjects from the start of Year 12 then they will need to supplement their online application with an email explaining why; this may apply to elite sportspeople or musicians. The email should be sent to the Head of Sixth Form.
It is important to note that no offers will be made in the Spring. In the past, predictions have been sought from existing schools and offers made on that basis. Our new admissions policy instead makes offers only on the basis of results on the next working day following GCSE results day. Students must, therefore, submit their results to us on GCSE results day in August 2027 so that the oversubscription criteria can be applied. Failure to do so will mean that students can only be placed on a waiting list should others reject their place.
