Our application process
Thank you for your interest in Abbey Gate College.
Our main points of entry are at Foundation, Year 7 and Sixth Form, but we do consider new pupils in other year groups, if there is space available, including Year 5 and Year 10. We encourage all potential applicants to visit our College and personally meet with the Head, Mr Jenkinson, for Senior, or Mrs Hickey, for Junior. Please complete the relevant form above and we will contact you to arrange an appointment.
Entry into Years 3-11 is by Entrance Examination and by observation-based assessment for the Infant School (Foundation -Year 2). All students meet with the respective Head during the application
process. This can be before or after an application is submitted. Depending upon the year group of entry, the Entrance Examination consists of a standardised, online test, a Creative Writing or Comprehension exercise, and a Mathematics examination; please contact the Admissions team for further information. We are, however, unable to provide past papers.
Our Sixth Form entry requires an interview with the Heads of Sixth Form, after which a conditional offer will be made and will be dependent upon agreed GCSE grade requirements. Our standard requirement is Grade 6 or above in the chosen A-Level subjects (or relevant subject), Grade 5 or above in English and Maths and Grade 4 or above in non-related GCSE subjects.
Further information can be found in our Admissions Policy.
We would love to show you around our College, so that you can see for yourself what a special community this is.
