Entry at Sixth Form (16+)
Applicants to The Leys should start the process one to two years ahead of the proposed year of entry.
Usually the process begins with a visit to one of our Open Mornings, Small Group Visits or a private visit, where you will be able to gain a sense of what is on offer at the School. In addition, a Sixth Form Open Evening for prospective pupils and their parents takes place each year in September. During this event, department teachers will talk about their subjects, and the Deputy Head (Academic) and Head of Sixth Form and Careers will be available to discuss subject combinations and other relevant matters.
The information below should act as a guide to the process of applying for a place, and further information can be provided by our admissions team.
