Want to know why learners from Solihull and Birmingham should choose Solihull Sixth Form College? Here’s why our staff and learners think you should choose us.

If you have questions, please check our Admissions FAQ before contacting the Admissions Office, as we are receiving very high volumes of emails and the FAQ may give you a faster response.

There are links to lots more useful information below. We advise students to attend an open day before they make an application and to read our course information so that they can ensure they are applying for the courses that are right for them. With this in mind, the links below may be useful.

Students and parents may find our Admissions Policy and Enrolment Policy, as well as the Enrolment at 17+ Policy useful. These can be found on a Statutory Information page.

All our courses are offered subject to there being sufficient numbers of applications for financial and educational viability. This cannot be confirmed prior to enrolment in August/September. When courses are over-subscribed, priority will be given to applicants from our partner schools (Cockshut Hill, Hall Green, Langley, Light Hall, Lode Heath, Lyndon, Ninestiles and Yardleys Schools), then to applicants who live within the Borough of Solihull.

Applicants will be interviewed before an offer is made. Interviews are strictly by invitation only and prospective students should check their email regularly to see ensure they do not miss the invitation for their interview.
