Entry requirements to Hills Road are different to other sixth form centres. We don’t ask for a set group of GCSE grades. Instead, each A level has its own entry requirements, with an Admissions Score and minimum GCSE grade.

Grade and score entry criteria

Using predicted GCSE grades provided by your school, applicants must meet the relevant Admissions Score and minimum GCSE grade for each A level course applied for.

Applicants must include three eligible A level subjects, but are encouraged to include up to five to allow flexibility if courses are unavailable. 

Admissions Scores

• Minimum Entry Admissions Score is 58 or 56 for Cambridgeshire Area Partnership (CAP) students
• Maths Admissions Score is 60
• Higher Admissions Score (Biology, Chemistry, Computer Science and Physics) is 71 or 69 for Cambridgeshire Area Partnership (CAP) students
• The Four A level Programme Admissions Score is 78, which includes Further Maths. 

You can use our handy Admissions Score calculator to work out your score. All you need are your predicted grades and to follow the instructions on the calculator.
