sixth form UK

My niece is 16 now, she finished grade 9 in Sweden and came to the UK for sixth-form studies, she got her grades in points.
what's the equivalent for her grades in UK?

Please explain a bit more :
1) What was the qualification she took in Sweden?
2) What qualifications is she taking in the UK?
3) Has she taken GCSE Maths or English at her Sixth Form?
4) What does she want to do at Uni?

Whilst her Swedish 16+ are probably a vey loose equivalent of GCSEs, and she would be accepted to take A levels here if she has sensible grades (acceptable for preparatory Gymnasium level in Sweden?), any Sixth Form would probably suggest that she takes GCSE English alongside any A levels, and probably a Maths qualification simply to make her pathway to Uni or employment easier.

Many Sixth Forms do accept late applicants - which city or part of the UK?
