This course is a one year course at Long Road for students who need a consolidation year before embarking on the Advanced Diploma or A levels (i.e. they arrive at Long Road with less than 5 A-C grades). The course will be worth 5-6 GCSEs at A-C and it is likely that students would be taking it alongside English Language and probably Maths.

It will be a very intensive course, in order to cover all units. It would qualify students to go on to the Advanced diploma or to do A levels in Arts and Humanities.
