How To Apply
We are an over-subscribed Sixth Form with a limited number of places available. To offer adequate support and guidance to students in making appropriate subject choices; the deadline for applications to join Barnhill Sixth Form in September 2025 are as follows:
- Applications for Year 11 Barnhill students: Friday 20 December 2024
- Applications for Year 11 students from other schools: Thursday 30 January 2025
Sixth Form Interviews will take place in February. If you apply after our application deadlines, we will only offer interviews later in the year if we have space to and once we have made all offers to applicants who have applied before the deadline.
The alternative route for late applications is explained in the 'GCSE Results Day' section at the bottom of this page.
Entry Requirements and Subject Criteria
Students will need to perform exceptionally in a wide range of subjects at GCSE and also be able to evidence high standards of behaviour, punctuality and attendance in Year 11.
Students must achieve a minimum of 5 grade 9-4 at GCSE including English and Mathematics, with a minimum of a grade 6 at GCSE in that subject or a closely related subject for most A Level courses (some subjects require grade 7 at GCSE). View the entrance and subject criteria document attached below for more detailed information.
All applications to Barnhill Sixth Form will be considered carefully and offers will only be made following a face to face meeting at Future Focus Evening and if pupils are likely to meet the entrance and subject criteria requirements.
Once you have completed your application we will write to you with further details of Future Focus Evening in February and March where a member of the Senior Leadership Team or Post-16 Team will meet with you to discuss your subject choices and application further. Students will receive offer letters in March.
