Admissions Criteria

Minimum entry grades for chosen A level subjects; average of best eight GCSEs/IGCSEs/IB MYP subjects required (eight-full GCSEs/IGCSEs/IB MYP subjects; or seven plus a BTEC CNAT Level 1&2). Priority groups include looked-after children, applicants with an Educational Health & Care Plan (EHCP), children of current staff, and applicants from partner schools (The Archer Academy or Friern Barnet School). Offers depend on predicted grades, subject combinations, and distance from the college (more than 60 minutes by public transport is less likely). Eligibility for ESFA funding and equal treatment of candidates is stated, with SEND considerations noted.
