Sixth Form Enrolment is now closed
Our enrolment deadline passed at 3pm on Thursday 22 August. All places for September 2024 entry have already been offered and accepted.
Enrolled students should have now received a link to their Enrolment Pack and Data Collection Forms.
If you have not received this, please contact admissions@uobschool.org.uk ASAP to check that we have the correct contact details on file.
Late Applications
Late applications to join our Applicant Pool are now open via our Application Portal.
Whilst we do not currently have any places available for September Entry, late applicants who meet our Sixth Form Entry Requirements will be entered into our Applicant Pool.
What is the Applicant Pool?
A place in our Applicant Pool means that we will hold a copy of your grades and information, so that we may be able to consider your application if a space becomes available in your chosen combination of A-Level subjects, after our initial Offer Holder places have been confirmed.
However, rather than a numerical waiting list where students are ranked, our Applicant Pool places are are offered based on the combination of a number of factors;
Capacity in chosen A-Level classes
Capacity of overall Sixth Form places
Our priority admissions criteria (see below)
Effectively, this means that an offer can only be made if we have spaces available in all three of your chosen A-Level subjects AND we have not already filled to our overall intake of 200 students.
Priority Criteria
Where multiple applicants are eligible for the same subject combination, priority will be given to applicants in the following order:
1. Looked-after children or children who were previously looked-after
2. Candidates with either an Education, Health and Care plan (EHCP) or statement of Special Educational Needs naming the University of Birmingham School
3. Children previously eligible for the Pupil Premium as defined in our Admissions Policy
In the event of two or more applications that cannot otherwise be separated, the School will use random allocation as a tie-break.
