GCSE English Language (A Level Students)

GCSE Level 2 (1 Year)

For students who do need to re-sit either GCSE English or Maths, we can accommodate English and Maths within your programme of study. You will require a grade 4 (grade C) at GCSE English Language to progress to any AS/A Level courses. Some AS courses are open to students who have not yet achieved a grade 4 (grade C) in Maths; the Maths GCSE will take the place of one of your AS options. Please get in touch with us to discuss this in more detail.
