Take your aspirations higher

If you are passionate about going to University and are academically minded then A Levels are the traditional route to achieving your career aspirations.

Choosing to study A Levels allows you to keep your options open, with focused study of three or four subjects across two years. You’ll be based in MC6, our modern A Level Centre which boasts a vibrant, independent environment, and helps bridge the gap between school and University.
