  • Get the grades you need for your chosen course/subjects.
  • Keep an eye on our website for any important updates.
  • Make sure you get approval from our Learning Support or Safeguarding teams before enrolling if needed.
  • Finish the full enrolment process during Main Enrolment – see below for details,

Even if you’ve got an offer, your place on the course isn’t confirmed until you enrol. Some courses fill up fast – especially in the first few days of enrolment!

Enrolment will take place from Thursday 20th to Friday 28th August 2026 (excluding the weekend and August bank holiday). Enrolment is by appointment only and you’ll get a set time for your enrolment in the summer. Try to come at the date and time we give you – this is your priority appointment, and it gives you the best chance of getting a place on your first-choice course/subject(s).
