Hi, you can't join AFC(H) until after your GCSEs. AFC(H) is classed as college (although obviously you are employed by the army and therefore paid) so you join after Yr 11 regardless of reaching the age requirement before actually finishing Yr 11. I hope that helps. In your case, you'd have to wait until the Sept intake.
