16+ Entry

Sixth-Form-Speech-Day

 

Around 30 pupils each year join Canford in the Sixth Form from a wide range of backgrounds, both educationally and geographically. They are warmly welcomed into the Canford community and throw themselves into the vast range of opportunities on offer.

After visiting the school, the submission of a completed registration form is required by early October for entry the following September. We hope the information provided on this page gives you a good sense of the process for joining Canford at Sixth Form.

Places are offered subject to candidates' achieving a minimum of 42 grade points on the best seven GCSEs including English and Maths. Normally we would expect at least a grade 7 (or an A grade) in each subject to be studied in the Lower Sixth and at least a 6 (or a B grade) in English and Maths.
