强化课程是为那些在其他地方学习过AS Level或A Level的学生而设计的，但他们可能尚未达到他们想要的成绩并希望重修。它们还为希望快速学习的学生而设计。想要在一年内完成其学历的学生将需要证明他们具有学术技能，尤其是在科学方面具有先验知识。获得GCSE或同等学历的成功证据是重要的先决条件。打算参加一年制A-Level的学生应仔细考虑他们的选择。例如，自然科学以学生对本学科的先验知识为基础，涉及大量材料，而大多数社会科学学科则可以更轻松地涵盖而不必假定任何先验知识。与两年制课程一样，我们为学生准备最适合
The intensive one year course is designed for students who have the clear ability to fast track their studies and complete A-Levels within one year rather than two years. Such students will ordinarily have completed education in their home country to the age of 17 or are UK students who need to study new A-Levels to enable them to pursue a change in career or academic direction. Students wanting to complete their qualifications in a year will need to demonstrate that they have the academic skills and prior knowledge relevant to their chosen one-year A-Level subjects to enable them to succeed on what is a highly demanding course. Evidence of success at GCSE or home country equivalent in relevant subjects is an important pre-requisite for entry to the course and international students should have an IELTS (Academic) score of at least 6.5.
