Sixth Form Admissions
In our Sixth Form, we continue the school’s aims of high academic achievement and helping every student to engage positively with school life and develop to their full potential.
Our students are taught by subject specialists, and the vast majority achieve grades A*, A and B at A-Level. We have an excellent record of entry into the most competitive universities and degree courses.
The Sixth Form team takes individual advice and guidance very seriously on all aspects of Sixth Form life, beginning with the options process. Aspiring Sixth Formers need to consider their options wisely to choose a set of subjects that will engage them and play to their strengths. The school will take into consideration an applicant’s overall profile, including their GCSE results, before agreeing to them studying any particular set of subjects. We aim to help our students decide wisely, both about their participation in Sixth Form life and for their future careers and education.
All aspiring Sixth Formers need to apply to join our Sixth Form, including our current Year 11 students as well as those applying to join us from other schools. Full details of the admissions process can be found in the Determined Admissions Arrangements document available on this page. Please note that for external applicants, we have recently amended our admissions policy to prioritise disadvantaged students, such as those in care or in receipt of free school meals or pupil premium funding. All aspiring Sixth Formers are encouraged to attend the Sixth Form Open Evening held in the autumn term. Please visit the Open Evenings page for more information.
Internal students
Our current Year 11 students already attending The Tiffin Girls’ School will be guided through the process of choosing their A-Level options with assemblies and form time. They will be asked to submit their A-Level choices using their webPortal account in March 2025 (exact date to be confirmed) and this will act as their application to Sixth Form. Once they have completed their A-Level options, all current Year 11 Tiffin Girls’ students will automatically have a conditional offer of a place in our Sixth Form, which they can secure by meeting the entry requirements as outlined in the admissions policy below.
External applicants
Our sixth form open evening took place on Thursday 21 November 2024. We do not have any further open evenings, nor do we offer individual tours. However, all information about how to make an application to join our Sixth Form in September 2025 is on the website. All our admissions for external students are done in the immediate post-GCSE results period, so there are no advance applications, and there is no application form to be completed until the summer of 2025.
