Welcome to Stanground Academy

Stanground Academy Sixth Form achieved results ahead of expectations this year and has continued to add value to students' results year-on-year.

When applying, please be specific about the learning journey that you are looking to take, as we are oversubscribed in many subject areas.

We also continue to admit a number of students from outside the Academy, and we are especially proud of how quickly these students become successful, prominent and happy members of our school community.

All course requirements are listed in our 'Academy Course Specifications', which can be downloaded by clicking on the link below.

Our A-level courses require: 5+ grades (6+ in specific courses) and our Vocational courses require: grade 5+/ 4+ (including English and Maths).”
