Curriculum

Our curriculum is all about choice

View A-Level Subjects

In our Sixth Form, you have 27 A-Level subjects to choose from, so you really can play to your strengths and follow your interests. Most of our girls take one of these pathways:
•    3 A-Levels
•    3 A-Levels plus 1 AS (the latter examined at the end of Year 12)
•    3 A-Levels plus an extended project qualification (EPQ)
•    3 A-Levels plus Core Maths (the latter examined at the end of Year 12)
•    4 A-Levels (only a small number take this option)

While making your choices, you’ll need to bear in mind the individual GCSE grade requirement for each subject, which you’ll find in our Sixth Form Prospectus (as well as the general requirement of at least six GCSEs at Grades 6-9, including English and Maths).


Whatever you choose, you’ll have constant support from specialist staff, through regular personal reviews and tutorials. You’ll also benefit from outstanding facilities for every subject.
