KS4 Subject Preferences (Previously Options)

In Year 9 all students express their preferences for some of the subjects that they will study at Key Stage 4 (Years 10 and 11). We offer a wide array of both academic and vocational qualifications for students. Students are guided carefully through this process with input from their subject teachers, curriculum leaders, the pastoral team and our careers advisor. Parents are invited to Subject Preferences Evening and encouraged to offer as much support as possible to their children regarding the Key Stage 4 journey.

Our detailed booklet has all of the information needed to select GCSE or vocational qualifications and answers to a list of Frequently Asked Questions.

If you require any further information, please contact Mr Keelan.
