Sixth forms in london

Hi, i'm in year 11 and i'm applying for sixth from around london. i want to do psychology, sociology and biology? What schools would you recommend? preferably state sixth forms please
I'd recommend Cardinal Vaughn. IK its a catholic school, but it is a rlly good school.

Sacred Heart is a girls catholic school but allows other religions and denominations, and the downside is that the teacher for psych/soc can't actually teach, and never been taught soc (idek how she got hired tbh) but, hopefully, by the time you apply, things will be better here than this year. (im in y13 and been here since y7) and science is actually a pretty good department. Here departments can be pretty hit and miss. geo's bad (drama with teachers) so is psych/soc (bad teacher) and RS is hit and miss depending on teacher.
Where in London? Central, North, South, East, West. If you are in far West London, then giving you ideas in far East London won't be helpful.

im east london
Near me in East London.
There is Sacred Heart (girls school) which has good results. It is a Catholic school and from what I understand of the admission criteria, you realistically need to be Catholic to get in. https://www.sacredheartofmary.net
There’s Coopers which has good humanities results, but the science results dropped considerably last year. I went there and some teachers are good and others are poor. The secondary school is religious, but the sixth form is not. https://www.cooperscoborn.org.uk
There is FBA (girls school) in Romford. It has good results, but I am not sure about anything else. https://fbaok.co.uk
I’m not sure about schools outside of my area.
