At 16+, joining Queen's College, London is a purposeful step towards academic excellence and personal maturity.

We offer a stimulating and demanding curriculum that challenges students to think independently and engage deeply with their subjects and prepare confidently for future study. Alongside our academic rigour sits a strong pastoral framework, ensuring every student is supported and encouraged as they navigate this important transition.

Many students choose to join us in the Sixth Form from other schools, and indeed other countries. 

Our 16+ 2027 Open Evening is taking place on Thursday 24 September 2026.  Book your space here.

If you would prefer to visit at another time, please contact our Head of Admissions, Ms Barbara Porter, at admissions@qcl.org.uk, who will happily arrange an individual visit.

From September, 2027, we will be offering boarding places into our Sixth Form in partnership with DLD College.  More information can be found here.

Admissions Criteria

Admission to Sixth Form is on the basis of an interview with the Director of the Senior College and a good reference (with predicted GCSE grades) from the candidate's current school.

Occasionally, we may ask a candidate to sit a short test in a particular subject or subjects, and entry is always subject to a minimum performance at GCSE as follows:

• The minimum required grades for each of their preferred A-level subjects.
• In addition, students need (I)GCSE Mathematics and (I)GCSE English Language; these must be retaken if the minimum standard is not met.
