Carshalton High School for Girls is a comprehensive school for girls between the ages of 11 and 19 with a mixed Sixth Form. Applications for school places at CHSG are received by the London Borough of Sutton Admissions Department but managed by the Admissions Officer at the school.
The admissions number for Year 7 net year is 240 places, of which 24 are scholarship places for students with an aptitude in Sport or Music. There is a supplementary form for applications for a scholarship place.
For admissions from primary school to Year 7 parent/carers are asked to complete the Common Application Form (CAF) available from their primary school or the London Borough of Sutton Admissions which can be accessed. No applications made direct to CHSG will be accepted.
Parent/carers are strongly advised to read our Admissions Policy carefully and information and advice from their local authority. The CAF must be submitted by 31st October tjis year. Applications received after this date will be regarded as late.
On 1st March next year parent/carer’s will be notified of the school where their child has been offered a place. Online applicants can accept this offer electronically those who have applied using the paper form should return the acceptance form to their local authority by hand or by post.
Those who did not receive an offer of a place at CHSG have the right to lodge an appeal against this decision.
We offer courses at Level 3, both A level and BTEC. The earlier you apply, the better your chance of being admitted to the courses of your choice.
All A level courses are two years in duration with the whole of the assessment taking place at the end of Year 13. Vocational courses are also a two-year commitment with assessment both during and at the end of the course.
Students who have applied for a place in the sixth form and meet the required entry criteria for their chosen courses will be accepted into CHSG Sixth Form.
We are proud of our outstanding care, guidance and support for Sixth Form students. We have a clear framework for learning and students are tracked and monitored throughout their time with us, using a variety of data and information. Students also benefit from a range of links we have with outside agencies.
We aim to keep tutor groups small. Most tutors will stay with their tutor group through Years 12 and 13. The tutor undertakes a number of roles in offering advice and guidance to help students settle in quickly and enjoy their time with us. In Year 12 tutors will also take on academic mentoring, which includes regular one-to-one reviews of progress to maximise achievement.
The tutor, together with our Careers Manager, supports students in making the right decisions about career choices and applications for higher education or employment.
