We offer a wide range of A-levels, Level 3 AAQ / BTEC / CTEC, and T Level qualifications. Students can choose to study all A-levels or all AAQ / BTECs / CTECs, with many choosing to study a combination of both. You will normally study three subjects at A-level (or the equivalent number of AAQ / BTECs / CTECs) but if you have very good GCSE results you may be able to choose four if you achieve an average GCSE point score of 7 or above. Students completing a T Level programme will receive a qualification equivalent to three A-levels.

How Many Subjects Can I Choose?

Students wishing to study four A-levels will be expected to achieve an average GCSE score of 7 or above. Don’t worry if you are uncertain about which subjects to choose or whether to mix A-levels with AAQ / BTEC / CTECs: we will give you lots of advice and guidance about your subject choices at your interview and again at enrolment.
