Most college applications will be accepted from October to the new year, the process normally begins in the autumn term of Year 11, so end of October through to November.
Some local colleges will be having their taster days this summer to help Year 10 students to start thinking about their post 16 options. Please contact the colleges to book a place.
Please note our Year 10's are free to attend the taster day at Lewes College on 17th June as there will be no mock exams on that day. If you cannot attend these dates there will be lots of other opportunities to visit the colleges at the start of Year 11 during their open days.
