A large proportion of our Year 11 students choose to continue their studies in our Sixth Form, and we are equally delighted to welcome applications from Year 11 students in other schools across Essex and Southend.
Our Open Evening for 2025 has now passed. If you were unable to make the event, prospective students and their parents/carers are welcome to visit our school at any point during the school year.
Please contact Mrs Ramdin on 01702 545771, extension 3222, or email charlotteramdin@kes.essex.sch.uk to arrange an appointment that suits your availability.
To join our Sixth Form, we want to ensure every student is set up for success. Our entry requirements are designed to help you understand the qualifications and skills needed to thrive in your chosen courses and make the most of your time here.
To study Pathway A or B, students must have the required points, including a Grade 4 in both English and Maths.
