Golf Academy at Canterbury Golf Club

Applications Open – 3rd November 2025

Applications Close – 31st July 2026

Entry Requirements –We do have entry recommendations for some courses, especially A-levels, as we would not want you to start a course that would not be suitable for you. We want to give you the best chance of future success.

The course programmes are flexible: students can mix Level 3 courses with Level 2 courses, or A-levels with BTECs. We provide impartial advice and guidance and seek to put you on the courses you want and are likely to be successful in.

Students are expected to study up to 3 A level equivalent subjects (this can be from either A levels and/or Level 3 BTEC subjects) building their own personalised combination of Level 3 subjects OR a full time Level 2 course.

The sixth form runs on a flexible timetable with some courses running until 6.00pm. This flexibility means we can offer as much as possible, to as many as possible, as often as possible.

How to Apply – Please apply via Kent Choices.

Golf Academy at Canterbury Golf Club

This programme is open to students in The Canterbury Academy Sixth Form. A partnership with Canterbury Golf Club allows us to provide regular coaching and fitness throughout the school year.

Players on the golf academy receive specialist coaching from the professional coaches at Canterbury Golf Club and are able to access the Top Tracer driving range and excellent practise facilities at the club. Some sessions will involve playing on the picturesque 18-hole course.

Fitness training is provided by the athletics academy coaches and after a generic introduction, becomes more bespoke for each player. Students wanting to join this academy need to be playing regular golf and will ideally be a member of a golf club.

In some cases, we can provide places for students who are not members of a golf club. For more information, contact sport@canterbury.kent.sch.uk

Students are also required to apply for Sixth Form subjects that will be delivered alongside the Golf Academy. More details on home page.
