Yes, you can definitely do A levels, although I would recommend retaking if you can. Obviously if you wanted to do an A level in eng lang that would be a bit more tricky. I assume this is at GCSE?

Yes, but I'm pretty sure you'll have to retake English Language.

Oh wow. Don't worry about it though becuase there are sixth forms that will accept you so it might be a good idea to give a few sixth forms/colleges a ring.

No, but you should be able to look it up on the OCR/AQA/Edexcel (or whoever you're using)'s website. They usually give a sort of time period within which they'll get back to you.

Was the sixth form that you asked your own school's sixth form?
If not definitely speak to them as they might be a little lenient. I just had enrolment day at my school and one of my options was bio. I (shockingly) got a C in that and what really let me down was my controlled assessment, which everybody in my year said was my teachers fault as he didn't explain the task to us properly so I was downgraded to a C in that but only one mark off a B meaning I could have got an overall B anyway.
When I went to the science desk, he was like you did well on the first module(b1,2,3) but your second module (b4,5,6) was quite bad but he didn't (like I was expecting) persuade me to not do it- he hadn't even taught be before so I was surprised-instead, he just put me down for extra classes for the first term and then they would review my progress and see if I can cope with it!!!
So, definitely have a word with YOUR school's sixth form- they know what's best for you
Good luck :smile:
