Studying With Us

We are now accepting admissions for our Sixth Form for September 2026! Please fill out one of the forms below by Monday 15th December 2025 to apply for your place.

Current TPS Students

External Applicants

All TPS Year 11 students will have a meeting with a member of the Sixth Form team or SLT to discuss their post-16 options in January or February 2026. More information will be shared with students and parents & carers in the coming weeks, including the dates, times and locations of these meetings.

Invitations for interviews for external applicants will be sent out from January 2026.

Our consortium prospectus website is now live and we encourage you to take a look at the huge range of courses we offer for students at Post 16, as well as the pastoral care and enrichment activities offered.

At The Priory School Sixth Form, we are part of the Hitchin Schools Consortium which includes Hitchin Girls’ School and Hitchin Boys’ School. This arrangement allows a wider range of subjects and option combinations and therefore presents a Priory 6th former with the very best choices for their future development. Additionally, learning away from your home school encourages collaboration, new friends and the opportunity to broaden your world view by working with a range of different teachers. Full support is given to each student through the respective school pastoral departments to help the settling in process and free transport is laid on to facilitate the movement between school sites.
