Current Y11 students attending schools that use the Sheffield Progress system should apply online using their school log in.

Students already on roll at a Sheffield sixth form school who list that school as their first preference will have any other preferences for Sheffield sixth form schools disregarded.  

The closing date for all applications is 31 January 2024. The applications will be passed to the schools for consideration. Students who applied via Sheffield Progress will need to check their account on 1 March 2024 for the outcome of their application. Those who applied on a paper form will receive a decision letter, sent to the student’s home address, on 1 March 2024. If a conditional offer is made, you must accept this offer by the date stated in the letter or email.

Schools outside of Sheffield or Private Schools

All students attending private, independent or schools outside the Sheffield Authority need to complete the paper Sixth Form Application form. You can apply for up to three Sixth Form schools and rank these in preference order. Estimated grades must be signed off by the current school. The current school should then email the form to the Sixth Form Admissions Co-ordinator tracey.senior@sheffield.gov.uk. 

We will use the email in the form to contact you if we have any queries.
