No it is not too late. If you were rejected from a sixth form already and nothing has changed in your qualifications then it isn't likely they would take you now. Contact other local colleges and discuss what they could offer you with the qualifications you have. You are young enough to be accepted and fully funded for study. Further education colleges are the most likely to have something, school sixth forms might have less choice and be less likely to accept an older student. Don't delay, courses for this year have already started and the longer you wait the less likely it is that you will be accepted for anything you'd want to do, If you are accepted they have to provide you with the opportunity to retake GCSE maths if you have not yet passed it.
