The Sandon School

Sixth Form Admissions 

As with all sixth forms and colleges, we have a few criteria we have to follow when deciding programmes of study for those entering The Sandon Sixth Form:

  1. You meet the subject specific criteria

    (found towards the back of this prospectus)

  2. You achieve a minimum of 40 points from your

    best eight GCSEs

  3. You achieve a grade 4 or above in Mathematics

    and English

We understand there might be extenuating circumstances, and we may consider applications and interview students who don’t quite meet the criteria. We will do our very best to accommodate all combinations of subjects, although this cannot be guaranteed. If you start in the sixth form without a grade 4 or above in English and/or Mathematics, you will be expected to re-sit the exams to achieve at least a grade 4.

 

The deadline for Sixth Form applications for September 2025 has now passed.  If you would like to make a late application, please contact sixthform@sandon.essex.sch.uk
