Girls-only Sixth Forms

I am sitting my GCSEs in 2026 and currently attend a girls-only secondary school. For my GCSEs I think I will be getting one or two 6s and mostly 7s and 8s, and one or two 9s. I am planning on doing Bio, Chem and Maths at A-Levels. I am wondering if there are any good girls-only sixth forms that I could apply to in London that are not too far from Ilford or Stratford. I also need them to allow abayas as their uniform. If anyone can help, that would be amazing.

I assume you're looking at the Newham/Havering/Redbridge area?

The Ursuline Academy (Redbridge, Illford) - All girls, although only 100 spaces
Frances Bardsley (Havering, Romford)
Sacred Heart (Havering, Upminster) (allows Abayas Dress Code - The Frances Bardsley Academy For Girls The Frances Bardsley Academy For Girls)
St Angela’s Ursuline (Newham, Forest Gate) describes itself as "predominantly female", although it is coed

There is an Islamic school called AAGS but I couldn't find a website or anything for it

I don't believe you're going to have much luck finding a non-Islamic-based sixth form (assuming based on abaya requirement) unless you went to a sixth form college (of which wouldnt be girls only) that will let you wear an abaya but you can always contact them and see.
