GCSE Courses


This GCSE course is appropriate for students between the ages of 14 – 16 and can be taken over a period of one or two years. Students opting for the one-year intensive course are usually 15+ and can take between 5-6 subjects; this largely depends on the student’s previous academic achievements and level of English.

Younger students (14 years old) are usually placed on a two-year course, and over the two years take between 7-10 subjects.

GCSE courses provide students with the basis required for entry to A level courses the following year. Full advice is offered to GCSE students about their choice of A level subjects through their tutorial programme and meetings with course directors.
