What you need to get on

2 Year Course - Normally 5 GCSE grades in the range of 9-4 (including English and Science) and with Maths at a minimum grade 7. For those students who achieve a grade 9 in GCSE Mathematics, there is an opportunity to study either AS or A-Level Further Mathematics in addition to your other subjects. The Further Mathematics course has a strong element of independent study and therefore it is essential to discuss your interest with either Mrs Rivers or Miss Gipson prior to making an application.
