“Students benefit from clearly defined routes to progress well between courses”

”A strong focus on ‘readiness to learn’ develops positive attitudes. Flexible workshops and individual tuition improve literacy and numeracy. Aspirational work with universities develops confidence and study skills. Students develop good practical skills and enjoy learning”

“Students respond well to questions and make good progress. A welcoming learning environment includes ready access to appropriate learning resources. Accommodation is well designed and flexible to encourage group work”

GCSEs (A2A: Access to Advanced)
Our A2A (Access to Advanced) course enables you to retake your GCSEs and go on to study at A Level

If you obtained at least four Ds in your GCSEs, including English or Maths, then you can apply for our A2A course. If you do not have grade Cs already, you will be required to take English and Maths. You can then opt for three other subjects. It is important to think carefully about how your subjects fit together.
If you already have some GCSEs at grade C but not enough to study at A Level, then we may be able to arrange for you to study an AS Level.
The aim of the A2A course is to prepare you for progression to advanced level, whether it be a BTEC National Diploma, the Creative Diploma or AS Levels.
