A Level Courses

A levels are a globally recognised qualification. As a student in the 6th form at school or college you will appreciate the importance of A levels to obtain the UCAS points required by the universities you have chosen.

“Summit is like a second home to many of its students as a former student myself, it was always a comforting thought to know that regular school was not the be all and end all. It was great to know that you had teachers you could trust and who would spend time with you ensuring you understood your work. It gives you a massive confidence boost and I did not feel intimidated to ask or answer questions in class as I used to be. It was also great having a second group of friends. The other students were so welcoming that Summit soon became a social benefit and not just an educational benefit. I would recommend Summit to everyone!”
