Joining LPS Sixth

We want our admissions processes to be as simple, smooth and straightforward as possible. That means removing entrance exams and prioritising in-person visits to ensure we’re the perfect match.

Our priority is to learn about YOU:  your hopes, ideas, aspirations and desired subjects – as well as what you enjoy doing outside school.  We want to help you achieve your ambitions.

We ask for passes in Maths and English and a minimum of Grade 6 in desired subjects (7 in Maths and 8 for Further Maths).

Here’s our simple, stress-free process to joining:

1. Enquire Online

Learn more about LPS Sixth and get in touch to kickstart the process.

2. Come and See Us

Arrange a personalised tour or attend an Open Evening.

3. Complete an Application Form

Apply online and pay the registration fee of £150.

4. Provide A Recent Report and if available, predicted GCSEs

We’d love to see a recent report and ideally, more details about your GCSEs and predicted grades.

5. Provide the name of someone who can provide a confidential reference

We set great store by the personal, confidential reference; after all, your current school should know you and your strengths very well.

6. Come and Meet Us

We’ll invite you to meet the Director of Sixth Form. This is our chance to discover more about you and for you to discover more about us. This is a relaxed an informal chat to understand your subject choices and future aspirations.  We’ll then discuss which of our London Career Pathways would suit you best.

7. Offer and Accept

Assuming that all is well, we’ll offer a place and you’ll have two weeks to accept.

8. Send us your GCSE results

Once results are in, we’ll need to see the confirmation of grades achieved.  Don’t worry if you didn’t quite get what you hoped for – we’re here to help and can either confirm which subjects work within your preferred London Careers Pathway or discuss alternatives.

9. Join Us!

We’ll look forward to seeing you walk through our doors as an LPS Sixth former.  It’s the start of something special.
