Joining the Sixth Form

Welcome to our virtual tour of TWGGS for prospective Sixth Form pupils, given by our 2020-2021 Head Girl Team. 

Tunbridge Wells Girls’ Grammar School will admit students into the appropriate academic year upon entry to the school. Pupils will not change academic year once they have joined unless there is extenuating medical evidence which would require this. Evidence would need to be provided by a suitability qualified professional and indicate that the pupil remaining in their current academic year group would have a serious and measurable impact on the health of that individual.

Parents who wish to lodge an appeal against the refusal of a place at Tunbridge Wells Girls’ Grammar School for Sixth Form should write to The Clerk to the Governors, Tunbridge Wells Girls’ Grammar School, Southfield Road, Tunbridge Wells, Kent TN4 9UJ, clearly marked ‘APPEALS’ with their reasons for their appeal.

Where the offer of a place is conditional upon the pupil meeting the entry requirements, the appeal will be heard within 30 school days of the refusal of a place (upon confirmation of examination results); parents will be notified of the date, time and venue of the appeal 10 school days prior to the appeal; and of the outcome of the appeal within 5 working days of the appeal being heard.

Further information can be found in the Appeals Procedure.
