The College will access the majority of GCSE results from the Department for Education by Friday 23 August and auto enrol all applicants who meet their course entry requirements, and notify you by email and confirm in writing between Friday 23 August to Friday 30 August.

If you have met the entry criteria of your chosen course, during enrolment week we will get you enrolled and send you an email and letter to confirm your enrolment. If we find your results are significantly better or not quite what you hoped for the course you have chosen, we will give you a call to discuss your options. Please do not worry, we will work with you to enable you to find the course that’s right for you. If you wish to discuss this further with our academic teams please contact them on the email address for departments under our Frequently Asked Questions section below.

Please can we ask that you have your phone close to hand during enrolment week to enable us to check in with you.

If you have already achieved your qualifications in a previous academic year, we will contact you directly to arrange your enrolment.
