How to apply
Applications are made directly to our sixth form via the link below.
Each student must complete an application form with details of predicted grades and related course options. We then send out conditional offers based on the student’s predicted grades and their related courses options at that time.

Pathways
We offer two key pathways at Ark King Solomon Sixth Form.
A Level Pathway
We offer the core academic A Level subjects that we know are most valued by good universities, and that allow you to keep your progression options as open as possible. Most students will study three linear A levels; some will take a fourth subject, depending on GCSE results.
Entry criteria: 5 Grade 6s and above in GSCEs, including English and Maths (not including BTECs or other equivalents). You will also need to meet the individual entry criteria for specific subjects.
Professional Pathways
The BTEC Business course is part of the Ark Professional Pathways programme. This course exposes students to workplace environment, using trips, enterprise events and lessons that explicitly teach work-ready skills to ensure students are ready to be successful in business in the future.
Entry criteria: 5 Grade 5s and above in GSCEs, including English and Maths (not including BTECs or other equivalents).
