Sports Awards are only available for current Year 6 students who are applying for Year 7 admission.

Candidates for a Sports Award will take part in a selection process at the school. The first part of this process is a practical assessment. Candidates who are shortlisted following this will be invited to proceed to stage two, where they will be given the opportunity to discuss their sporting achievements and plans for the future.

10% of all places are reserved for students who show a particular aptitude for either sport or performing arts and students who qualify under this category do not need to satisfy any other of the admission criteria.

Holders of an award will be expected to participate in a range of sport, involving themselves fully in extra-curricular clubs and teams. It is also expected that they will consider seriously opting for G.C.S.E Physical Education in Year 10.
