Loreto Grammar Sixth Form

Post by DiLusso »

Does anybody have any experience of how easy or difficult it is to gain entry into Loreto Grammar Sixth Form as an external applicant? I think I've read somewhere that they offer 20 external places but do these generally get taken up by girls scoring top grades only?

Here is Loreto's 6th form admissions criteria.....

In September 2018, the school will have a capacity for 280 in the Sixth Form allowing us to admit 160 into Year 12 with 20 places available to external students. The entry requirements to the Sixth Form are a minimum of six subjects at grade 6, with girls achieving at least level 6 in subjects chosen to study, and grade 5 in English and Mathematics. No equivalent qualifications will be accepted.

The Governing Body expects that all students specifically selecting a Catholic education will be fully involved in the ethos and spiritual life of the school, and in achieving the aims set out in its Mission Statement.
The criteria for over–subscription will be as for Year 7 and will only apply to external candidates. For ‘primary school’ read ‘secondary school’. If in any category there are more applications than places available, then priority will be given to those girls who achieved the highest GCSE grades. In the event of a tie-break then closest distance from home to Loreto will be applied*.
