Two-year A levels at CIFE colleges

Important though they are, good exam results are just one of the signs of a successful time in the sixth form; it's also a time to become more independent and to develop your own talents in preparation for university and beyond.

CIFE colleges approach two-year courses with their characteristic flexibility and focus on the individual. Their fexibility shows not just in the range of subjects and combinations you can choose, but also in patterns of exam taking, subject load etc. The high staff to student ratio helps considerably in easing you from GCSE ways of working into university-ready study habits.

All our colleges offer more than just teaching, but they vary in the extent to which you are required to take up extra-curricular options: many expect you to join in during the first year, (especially given the importance universities attach to 'roundedness'), but give you more freedom in the second year.

Choosing subjects and deciding how many to take needs careful thought and good advice. Your interests and plans must be key and CIFE colleges are good at tailoring programmes to the individual.
