Are A Levels impossible for dd now

So we moved from another country. DD just turned 17. She hasn't done any GCSE's. I tried to get her into a school, but they wouldn't take her as she is too old to start the 3-year GCSE programme. So she's enrolled in a College, and she's doing Maths & English (language) GCSE and she's on a Diploma in Art. She's not that happy though as 'to put it politely' and with no intent to disrespect anyone, the others in her class are students who have failed GCSE, as well as some 'long term students' ages 19-22 with possible learning difficulties.
She really 'should' be doing A levels now, but no college or school seems to allow that without GCSE. I've tried to get advice from the College but obviously they don't know dd, and what she is capable of.

What I want to know is, Are A-levels not possible for her now?

Should she try and do some more GCSE's online?
TIA,
