Sixth form admissions 2012

Where a school operates a sixth form, students are normally accepted from other schools as long as the school has capacity and the applicant meets the relevant admission criteria. Each school will have a different application timetable and number of places to offer.

Plymouth City Council is the admissions authority for community schools and is therefore responsible for the admission of pupils into the sixth form at these schools. The Council has however delegated the responsibility for the administration of admissions to the sixth form to the headteacher of each school. Applications for admissions should therefore be directed to the school. All those seeking admission to year 12 must achieve the necessary grades for access onto the courses they have chosen. Please contact individual schools for details of the admission arrangements.

Academies and Foundation, Trust and Voluntary Aided Schools are own admission authority schools which means that the schools are responsible for their own admission policies and arrangements. Please contact individual schools for details of their admission arrangements.

School details are available from the Plymouth schools directory.
