Admissions into Year 12

We welcome applications to our Sixth Form from both male and female students, whether currently attending our own or any other school

Applications & Admissions

We welcome applications to our Sixth Form from both male and female students, whether currently attending our own or any other school. Each year we welcome many new entrants from other schools, including boys. Our Sixth Form Management Team and Student Leaders provide support for transition, and all students very quickly become valued members of our Sixth Form community.

The entry requirements for the Sixth Form, and the application process for internal and external students is outlined below. All offers are conditional on GCSE results, and therefore, will not be made firm until results and enrolment day.

MGGS is very well organised and we receive lots of support for UCAS and Post-18 plans.

Year 13 Student

Entry Requirements

  • Students must be 16 years of age by 31st August of year of entry into Year 12.

  • Admission to the Sixth Form will be as a result of applicants achieving:

    • At least a grade 5 in either English Language or English Literature
    • At least a grade 5 in Mathematics
    • At least 6 GCSE subjects of grades 9-5
    • The specific entry requirements for each of their chosen subjects. Please note that we adhere to our subject entry criteria strictly, and therefore, students who meet the minimum entry criteria but are not eligible for their chosen subjects will be offered an alternative programme of study.

    Priority will be given to existing students transferring from Year 11 who meet the entrance criteria.

  • In addition, students must meet subject entry requirements, which in most cases require a minimum of Grade 6 in the subject to be studied, or related subjects.
