A Levels

Students can choose to study over one or two years. In the two year route, students take four subjects in their first year (A/S Level) and three subjects in the second year (A2 Level). On the one year programme, students take three subjects. It is also possible to study on an eighteen month programme, starting in January

Teaching takes place in small groups with a maximum of eight students per class – normally there are three or four students per class This allows students to benefit from individual care and attention from the tutor, and to avoid suffering in silence if there is any part of the course which is not fully understood.

Our A Level teachers all have many years of experience and understand exactly what is required to gain high grades. With places at top universities becoming increasingly competitive this is an essential ingredient of success. Applications for first degree programmes are through the central body, UCAS, and students receive one-to-one help in what is often seen as a confusing and difficult system. Assistance is given in choosing the most suitable universities and courses, preparing personal statements, and practising for interviews.

In our experience, many students respond well to a more adult and less regimented environment than is possible in a normal school. Moreover, as our College is relatively small, it is possible for us to monitor closely each student’s progress, and to react quickly to any problems they may encounter.
