Continue Grades 12 and 13 in ECC's supportive college environment while working towards a recognised academic, occupational or vocational qualification.
The Sixth Form Pathways Programme is a Ministry of Education initiative that allows eligible students who have completed Grade 11 to continue Grades 12 and 13 through an approved institution.
At ECC, your pathway is the route into college. The qualification you earn depends on the programme you select and the pathway for which you are eligible.
Applicants must have formally completed Grade 11, be 16–18 years old and meet the entry profile for the appropriate pathway or complete the required diagnostic assessment.
Eligibility is for two years immediately following Grade 11. A student who applies after Grade 12—or one year after completing Grade 11—is eligible for only one year in SFPP.
Select the statement that best describes your present results. This is a guide only; ECC Admissions makes the final placement decision.
Choose one of the three options. This finder suggests a likely route; ECC Admissions confirms final pathway and programme placement.
Each pathway combines the qualification you are pursuing with the academic, employability and developmental support appropriate to your entry profile.
