How to confirm your place in BWS Sixth Form
When you have your results, you will need either accept or decline your place at BWS.
To accept your place, log into your application account https://bishopwordsworths.applicaa.com/2) and follow these steps:
1. Check your application details: Update anything that is incorrect (e.g. telephone numbers). Scroll down if necessary and save each page.
2. Enter your achieved grades: On the examination details page, you will need to change your predicted grades to “achieved”, enter the month you sat the exam and the grade you achieved.
3. Upload exam results evidence. This can be a screenshot, photo or scan, and you can upload multiple files. The results data you submit will need to include your name, unique candidate number (UCI) and exam candidate number on each document.
4. Check your subject choices. It is likely these will be the same as you submitted when applying, but if you have changed your mind or not achieved the grades required for that subject, you can select different subjects now. You should select three A-Level subjects and a fourth option in different blocks.
5. Submit! Click finish on the subject page and select “submit your enrolment form”. You will receive a confirmation email that your form has been submitted successfully.
Please note: We can only offer places at Sixth Form for students who hold a conditional offer, meet the grade requirements for the school and their subjects AND who confirm their place by 2pm on 21st August 2025. Once we receive your form, we check your results and your course selection and then confirm places after 2pm.
In the case of oversubscription, we will follow our admissions policy as detailed here: https://www.bishopwordsworths.org.uk/main-school/school-information-and-governance/policies/, which can be summarised as achievement as determined by GCSE results and space available on courses up to our planned admissions number.

Other information / what to do if…
• You wish to change subjects: You can do this online when submitting your enrolment form – select the new subjects you wish to study and submit.
• You have a 7.5 average points score and want to take a fourth A-Level: You can choose this whilst completing your subject choices in the enrolment form by selecting four A-Level subjects. Please note, these will only be timetabled after the main three A-Levels.
• You are having trouble uploading your results. Please be patient – the system may be slow on results day as so many people access it. However, if you still cannot get on the system, please email us at sixth@bishopwordsworths.org.uk to let us know.
• You have not achieved the minimum grade requirement for your subject. Please select a different subject, or come in to see us to discuss other subject options available. Unfortunately, we cannot offer places on courses where the entry requirements haven’t been met.
• Your subject is oversubscribed: if we do not have space on a subject, we will ring you to discuss your options.
• Your other choice of school / college needs you to accept a place before 2pm. Unfortunately, we cannot confirm places before 2pm to give everyone a chance to submit their results. In this case we advise you to accept the other offer, and if we are able to confirm a place, you can choose which you prefer to attend.
• You no longer wish to accept your place at BWS: Please use this form to let us know you no longer want us to hold a place for you - https://forms.office.com/e/6ArNy6srJb
• You have not achieved the required grades for BWS: Unfortunately, we are likely to be oversubscribed this year, so will not be able to offer places to any students without the required grades. If you need support deciding what to do next, please contact the careers adviser at your current school.
Don’t forget, you can pop in to see us between 9-1.30pm on results day, or email sixth@bishopwordsworths.org.uk if you have any other queries.
Good luck on the 21st, and we look forward to seeing you in September.
