Senior School

All CCEA A Level subjects are modular.  They consist of an AS (Advanced Subsidiary) Level with external exams at the end of Lower Sixth followed by A2 Level with external exams at the end of Upper Sixth.  The AS exams count towards 40% of the final A Level grade.

The following CCEA A Levels were offered for courses starting in September 2019.

Senior School Subjects

However, subjects which follow an English examination board specification are linear. For these subjects the AS is a separate qualification and as such does not count towards the final A Level grade at the end of Upper Sixth.  It is our policy that students who are taking linear courses will not be entered for AS examinations but only for the full A Level and so will sit all of their exams at the end of Upper Sixth.

Linear A Levels

A BTEC in Sport, equivalent to 1 A Level, is also available from September 2019.
