Applying to our Sixth Form

September 2026

We are delighted to be welcoming so many new students to LGGS Sixth Form this September: this has been a very busy enrolment period for us.

If you would like to make a late application, and have met all of our entrance requirements, there are a few places on a very limited number of courses still available to start at LGGS Sixth Form in September this year. 

Please first check our option blocks, below, to make sure that your preferred combination of subjects is possible and check the individual entry requirements for each subject.

If everything works, then please email us on enrolment@lggs.lancs.sch.uk to let us know what subjects you would like to study, sending us a clear photograph of your GCSE results statement, the right way up, and tell us the best phone number for us to contact you on.

We will then get back to you on Tuesday 1st September to let you know if this will be possible: as school is now closed for the summer there will be no reply to your email before then.

Note that there is no entrance exam for our Sixth Form, but students need to achieve grade 6 at GCSE in at least 5 subjects, and grade 6 in the subjects they wish to study at A level. They also need to achieve grade 4 in English and Maths. The document below has further details for individual subjects. 

.

Your combination of subjects will need to fit with our Option Blocks.  Most students study three A-level subjects, with a small number choosing to study four. In order to be eligible to study four A-levels you will need to achieve at least four subjects at grade 8 or above at GCSE.

Our application deadline for 2026 entry was 27th January 2026.

If you have not already applied to us but you would like to make a late application, there are a limited number of places on certain courses still available to start at LGGS Sixth Form in September this year. It is not too late to contact us to find out if there could be a place for you:

Please first check our option blocks, below, to make sure that your preferred combination of subjects is possible and check the individual entry requirements for each subject.

If everything is in place then please email us on enrolment@lggs.lancs.sch.uk to let us know what subjects you would like to study, sending us a clear photograph of your GCSE results statement, and tell us the best phone number for us to contact you on.

After you submit your application form you will be made a provisional offer. This will be subject to your meeting our general entrance requirements and any additional subject-specific requirements.

All students who apply to our Sixth Form from schools other than LGGS have an Advice and Guidance Meeting during the Spring Term with a senior member of staff where we discuss with you your A-level subject choices.  This is an informal meeting which is intended to ensure you make the right choices and give you the opportunity to ask any questions you might have. This meeting will be held online, for your convenience.

You will also be invited to our Sixth Form Induction Day on Thursday 26th June 2026, after the GCSE exams. This will be a great opportunity to meet other students and get to know the Sixth Form staff.

On GCSE Results Day we will confirm your enrolment and discuss any subject changes with you.  If you would like to discuss your application or require further information please do not hesitate to contact us at:
