Based on their predicted GCSE grades and results of our academic assessment candidates are then shortlisted and invited to attend our Group Assessment Centre where they will take part in a series of group activities with a problem-solving focus.
Shortlisted candidates will be interviewed by senior members of the Sixth Form team throughout November.
Those wishing to study Art A Level will be assessed by interview and will be asked to provide a portfolio of their GCSE work and sketchbooks to the assessment.
