In February, all Year 9s receive their Options Forms to make their choices for their GCSE courses beginning in September. Detailed information on each separate subject to help students make their choices can be found in the Options Booklet – please click on the link below:
For those parents/carers who are unable to join us for our Y9 Options Evening on Thursday 9th February please see below a selection of informative department videos giving details of their specific GCSE course content and how it is examined so do have a look! In addition, there is a video, by the previous Headteacher, Julia Maunder, that gives a useful overview of the Options process, including important guidance on how to fill out the Options Form.
