Options 2024 - 2026

Year 9 are now in their third, and final year of Key Stage 3 study. Options are an exciting stage for our students. They will move from studying a wide variety of subjects in KS3, to a bespoke, personalised curriculum at KS4. In turn, this will lead to qualifications that will enhance their life chances and opportunities. 

Students will study the following curriculum in KS4:

• English Literature and English Language GCSE 

• Mathematics GCSE 

• Combined Science GCSE (some students may choose Triple Science as an option which would replace this) 

• Option 1  

• Option 2 

• Option 3 

• Option 4 

• Core PE (not examined) 

All information about Options, for Year 9 students moving into Key Stage 4 will be posted on this page. Please take note of the key dates for your diary in the image to the right.
