We could not confirm these figures on a live official page at time of writing — treat as a secondary-sourced summary and confirm directly with the school. Partly verified

What happens after you apply
Broadly: application → aptitude test → interview (if shortlisted) → conditional offer → confirmation on GCSE results day. See our general how to apply guide for what to expect at each stage, and admissions tests / interviews for detail on those two stages specifically.
