PREDICTED GCSE GRADES ARE USED TO ASSESS YOUR SUITABILITY FOR ENTRY ONTO ALL OF OUR COURSES, AND MOST IMPORTANTLY YOUR LIKELY ABILITY TO ACHIEVE YOUR POTENTIAL THROUGH YOUR CHOSEN ROUTE.
We review your GCSE English Language and Mathematics grades, and the best grades from your remaining subjects. We review your GCSE English Language and Mathematics grades separately and you will see on each subject the details and grades required - the majority of our courses require at least a grade 4 for English and Mathematics (some courses may require grade 5) but please refer to the either the A Level or vocational entry requirement table below.
We appreciate that not all students will have decided to pursue a full GCSE programme and that you may also be taking other courses such as a BTEC Diploma. Only GCSE qualifications are taken into account if you are applying for A Level entry; but other qualifications, including BTECs, are assessed if you are applying for a Level 2 or Level 3 vocational BTEC diploma, or any other programme.

Students who have not achieved a grade 4 or above in GCSE English Language and Mathematics will be required to re-sit these qualifications at College alongside their main vocational course. Please note that it is not possible to resit GCSEs alongside an A Level programme.
Applications from students outside the UK will be individually assessed and you will need to have completed an advanced level qualification in English, such as IELTS, to demonstrate your ability to study in English. Students who do not hold GCSE or IGCSE qualifications must also obtain a NARIC Certificate (please visit: http://ecctis.co.uk/naric/ for further information).
