Sixth Form September 2025
 

Entry Requirements

Students wishing to attend our Sixth Form must meet the following entry requirements:

• A minimum GCSE grade 5 (or equivalent) in at least five subjects, including English Language or English Literature and Maths; and
• A minimum individual subject entry grade.

Individual subject entry grades are set out in the Sixth Form Course Guide below, and these should be considered before finalising choices.

Subject choices

Please download our Course Guide below for a detailed look at our course offering, including an overview of course content, assessments and individual subject entry grades. A Level and Level 3 courses can be studied alongside each other, providing students meet both our sixth form entry requirements, and the minimum individual subject entry grade for all chosen courses. 

Availability of courses is dependent on number of applicants and viability of running them. For this reason, we ask students to also select a reserve subject. If there is a change to their chosen subjects, we will notify students and parents as soon as possible.

External Students: 

The deadline for external applications was Monday 17 February. If you would like to apply and be added to the waitlist please apply below. 

Apply here: https://ccs.applicaa.com/year12
 

Internal Students:

All internal students will be attending an assembly to complete the application.  Current CCS students do not need to do anything else at this time and should await this assembly for further instructions.  Internal students should not attempt to create new applications (like external students will) as this will cause issues with our admissions system.

If you have any queries, please email: admissionsteam@ccs.northants.sch.uk or sixthformteam@ccs.northants.sch.uk
