It looks for an average of grade 7 or above at GCSE, plus the grades set for each A-level subject, and tests maths, English and reasoning in early November. Ibstock Place asks for at least 59 points from a candidate's best nine GCSEs, including grade 6 in English Language and maths. For 2027 entry, Ibstock's registration closes on 2 October 2026 and its assessment day is 12 October.
