A Levels

Choosing your A Levels

Didsbury Sixth Form offers an academic curriculum with a wide range of A Level subjects. Most students study three A Levels over the course of Years 12 and 13, although it may be possible to study four.

The subject choices you make at A Level are important. They can influence the courses, apprenticeships and career pathways available to you after sixth form. It is useful to gather as much information as possible before making your decisions.

Making informed choices will help students make the most of their current and future education. Our curriculum is designed to support progression to leading universities, competitive degree apprenticeships and a wide range of future careers, enabling students to make a positive contribution in whatever context they choose to live and work.

See below the subjects on offer from September 2027. Click on each subject for further information about the course, assessment, future progression and potential careers.
