6th Form Courses

We offer a range of A-level and vocational courses at Y Pant in a consortium arrangement with Bryn Celynnog. Students can pick subjects at either school but can only pick one subject in each column. regardless of school. You can find out more about transport between the schools here https://ypant.co.uk/bryn-celynnog-consortium-link/

 

In January we publish the 5 option columns for Year 12 starting the following September. These are based on interviews carried out with students before Christmas with the aim of ensuring as many students as possible can pick their first-choice combination of subjects.

All courses offered are at Level 3 and all carry UCAS points which can be used for university applications. Students are advised to check whether particular courses require particular A-level subjects – but we are happy to answer questions.

All 6th form students are required to study 3 or 4 subjects plus Welsh Baccalaureate. We advise that students only pick 4 subjects if they have already proven, through high GCSE grades, that they can cope with the increased workload, or want to spend the first few weeks of 6th form deciding between subjects. The Welsh Baccalaureate is an important part of the 6th form and also plays a significant role in university applications. This year over 80% of year 13 students have the Welsh Baccalaureate forming part of their university offers and over 40% of students had an A or A* in the Level 3 Welsh Baccalaureate.
