Welcome to the year 9 dedicated options area
Selecting your options is an important and exciting time, as you look towards your level two courses and the future.
We continuously review our curriculum to keep up-to-date with current government, university and workplace requirements, as well as providing for the wide range of interests and abilities of our students to ensure they are well placed to succeed in the future. We have an exciting range of qualifications on offer, in addition to those that are compulsory. Find out more about our courses through our GCSE options booklet.
Top tips for choosing your options
- Read about the different subjects on offer and what topics you could be studying
- Sit down with your parents or carers to talk through your options
- Choose subjects you enjoy and think about the subjects you are good at
- If you have a particular job or career path in mind, find out what subjects might support you with that career choice
- Don’t choose subjects just because your friends are doing them or you like the teacher – you may end up stuck studying a subject that you don’t enjoy
- Speak to your tutor or subject teachers if you have any queries about your option choices
