Application for Admission in 2024
We look forward to receiving your application.
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 have an Advice and Guidance Meeting 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. If you do not currently study at LGGS then this meeting will be held online, for your convenience.
You will also be invited to a Sixth Form Induction Day in the summer term, after 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.
