Applications will be available online through the Sixth Form website but can also be made via post or email and will go live on 22nd October 2026.
Once we have received your application, a member of the Sixth Form team will be in touch to arrange an interview. At the interview, we will discuss our courses and available pathways, with guidance on subjects for university courses and apprenticeships. Parents must be part of this discussion, so we ask parents to attend all Sixth Form interviews.
Following the interview, we will make a personalised conditional offer, and students will be required to attend a Sixth Form induction day in June.
Students will need to obtain the results outlined in their offer. They can accept their place on GCSE results day in August as long as they have met their conditional offer. Where a student may not have fully met their offer, we may still be able to offer them a place, but some adjustments to the courses they wish to study will be required. Once a student has accepted their place, they will start in September.
Year 11 students currently at NOA have been sent a link to their school email to Applicca, which is our application platform. Students will need to login via the link below and apply online.
External students may also apply via this link, but will need to register.
We welcome applications from students from other schools and are delighted that we are your first choice of Sixth Form for your next pathway. All external applications require a reference from a Head of Year or Pastoral Leader from their current school, and their details must be provided on the initial application.
Students who apply from another school will need to have a reference completed before they are invited to interview.
