Sixth Form
Welcome
We very much hope that you will choose to join the Sixth Form at King Edward’s. The majority of our Year 11 students stay on to study A-levels here with us, but at the same time we also welcome a large number of students from other schools. We are fortunate to have a dedicated Sixth Form Centre, which includes separate study areas and its own café.
All students at King Edward’s study four courses over two years; three A-Level subject options plus the EPQ. The EPQ (Extended Project Qualification) is intended to equip you with the skills and qualities required for your chosen Post-18 pathway. Further information on the A-Level subjects we offer can be found in our Sixth Form Course Guide.
To gain a place at KEVIGS Sixth Form, you must meet our academic entry requirements. Our entry is based solely on GCSE results (or GCSE equivalent where applicable).
KEVIGS Sixth Form Entry Criteria:
• A minimum of four grades at 6 or above at GCSE
• A grade 5 or higher in GCSE English
• A grade 5 or higher in GCSE Mathematics
• A minimum of a grade 6 at GCSE in the subject you wish to study (if the subject is offered at GCSE)
• A grade 7 or higher in GCSE Mathematics if you wish to study A-level Further Mathematics
To help you to make the right choice for Post-16 education, there are people who can give you the advice that you need. Subject teachers are a good place to start, but more specific help can be found through individual research. Help and guidance with this can be given by your tutors, your Head of Year and your school Careers Advisor. You can also keep in touch with our KEVIGS Sixth Form Team here.
We are proud of our Sixth Form students, their A-level results and their chosen pathways.
