If you are applying for a place other than at the normal year of entry please complete the form ADM1 (see below) or telephone the school office (01379) 870315 to request a copy is posted to you.
If you have any queries regarding the main school admissions process please telephone the school.
Sixth Form College Admissions
Students may apply directly to the Sixth Form College by completing an application form—either online or by hand (see above).
Students from Norfolk can apply through the ‘Help You Choose’ website at helpyouchoose.org if they wish. ucasprogress.com also has details of our courses. Applications should be made to the College as soon as possible. Applicants who apply after the end of February may find that their subject choices are restricted.
