Thanks for considering the Sixth Form at Poole Grammar School! We still have spaces for September 2025 and would welcome applications via email - pgs6form@poolegrammar.com

Thank you for considering Poole Grammar Sixth Form. Our students thrive in an academic environment with expert teachers who will support and challenge you both in terms of exam results and being prepared for your next steps.

We are delighted to be able to offer you a wide choice of courses. There is no entrance test to join year 12; instead, we require an average GCSE grade of 5.5 across seven subjects, and a grade 5 in both maths and English language. Subject-specific entry requirements apply to each A-level offered.

We are focused on getting the best results for each student who joins us. Our students’ grades are consistently excellent, as you would expect from a selective school. More impressively, student progress puts us in the top 25% of schools in the country. We put support in place if we feel a student is not doing as well as they should to make sure no-one is left behind.

We help students decide where they want to go after A-levels and support them to get there. We have excellent careers guidance and education which meets all the Gatsby benchmarks. Year 12 students do a hugely-useful week of work experience during term time.

Three-quarters of our students go onto university, often to highly-regarded institutions including Oxford and Cambridge. Other students go into competitive high-level apprenticeships or straight into exciting career pathways. Aspiring doctors get lots of help and advice in their applications through our MedSoc.

Life in the sixth form is not only about academic success but also personal and social development. We offer a range of extra-curricular activities and you can enjoy the benefits of our new gym and climbing wall.

I hope our website gives you a flavour of our sixth form and that you will take the opportunity to find out more about us. If you cannot find the information you require, simply contact us and either myself or one of my colleagues will be eager to help. I look forward to welcoming you to Poole Grammar School.
