Entry to the Sixth Form (Year 12)

King’s has a large and successful Sixth Form of about 300 boys, including approximately 10% who are new to King’s in Year 12.   We warmly welcome applicants for Sixth Form places from boys who will achieve good GCSEs.  The school has an established track record of ensuring that students joining the Sixth Form make a smooth transition both to A Level study and a new Post 16 environment.  All boys experience a thorough induction programme before the start of Year 12 to facilitate the transition into the King’s Sixth Form.

Our admission policies for the relevant year of entry can be found here .

Mandatory Induction Days are held at the end of June each year.

Please do read the information about the Sixth Form available on this website.  Information on Post 16 options can be found by following this link The King's School Grantham - Year 11 Options Evening - A levels (kings.lincs.sch.uk) . 

Our traditional Open Evening for potential Year 7 and 12 applicants is scheduled to take place on Monday 23 June 2025.  We do hope that you will be able to join us for a look around the school at this event.  If you have particular questions or concerns and would like to make contact with the Head of Sixth Form please get in touch with Mr. Whales who will be able to answer your queries: Nathan.Whales@kings.lincs.sch.uk.
