Sixth Form Admissions

For sixth form admission enquiries, please email the Sixth Form team 6th@towers.school or call 01233 634171 ext 555.

Admissions

Admission to Towers Sixth Form to study A levels or BTEC equivalent will be awarded on the basis of your GCSE performance. Each subject has its own entry requirements, for information please see our Prospectus.

How To Apply

In the first instance please apply via Kent Choices (Applications Close: - 4th April 2024 - any applications received after this date will be contacted after 1st September). If you do not have access to Kent Choices, please click here to complete our online form.

Our Admissions Team will organise a meeting for you to discuss the many possibilities that are available to you in the next step of your education.

Offers and Appeals

Offers will be made on the basis of predicted performance at GCSE, with the requirement that the grades required under the Sixth Form Admissions arrangements are achieved in the final examinations prior to entry to the Sixth Form and the pupil’s 3 chosen subjects being accommodated on the timetable, in feasible group sizes.

All offers made during Year 11 are conditional on pupils meeting the grade criteria specified and will only become firm offers upon confirmation of actual GCSE results.

Where learners have achieved better result than the predicted grades their entrance to sixth form will be considered based on the grades achieved and ranked accordingly for any places that become available as a result of other learners failing to meet the required entry levels.

Parents have a statutory right of appeal, should an application for a place be refused, by writing to Hazel.Groves@theeducationpeople.org.

Late applications will be considered if places in appropriate subjects are still available after all other applicants have been considered.
