Congratulations - you must be really happy. Well done and good luck when you get there!

Can we ask where you've got to?

Congratulations! biggrin.gif

I got a letter back too - it said they will offer me a place, providing I get the necessary grades (B in Maths, C in English Language, C in Geography, and at least 2 others). biggrin.gif

Is sixth form entry changed in the last few years?
When my girls were going into sixth form we were told that they have to be offered a place because nowadays they want all 16-18s in full time education.
The only restrictions were pparticular GCSE grades for some subjects and/or having enough people wanting that subject for them to run it.

Well done to both of you.

That's all part of making out afresh. I have made many friends along the way- but as I've moved on I've made more, and of course lost some in the process. Spend time getting to know people first then friendships will form naturally. You've chosen some good subjects too- and what better for music to get you socialising?

Congratulations Soph - & you're so lucky not to have a sixth form at your school - I wish I'd had the option of not staying as a school girl (plus unifom) for those two years.

It is uniform at this place, you have to wear a black trouser suit with a black or white shirt. i like this idea however as it gets more respect but adapts you ready for work.

Well done to everyone who has a college place, hope you get the grades, but I'm sure you all will! I really like the idea of Grades being asked for, guess we will find out next year if our daughter needs set results to get into 6th form.

Although, saying that, someone set a fire alarm off deliberately at college yesterday........how stupid and dangerous can one get!?
