Year 9 into 10 Options 2025-26

Throughout the first three years of their secondary education, your child has received a broad and balanced curriculum following the National Curriculum guidelines. It is now time to prepare for new courses in Years 10 and 11 which will lead to Level 2 qualifications and public examinations in GCSE and equivalent courses. All students will follow a core curriculum comprised of English Language, English Literature, Mathematics, Science, PE and Personal Development. The majority will also continue with a Modern Foreign Language.

Please refer to the Year 9 into 10 Options Guide below, which provides details of the optional subjects available to our students in Year 10 together with the options process and timescale for choices to be made. We want each student to choose wisely having considered their own interests, future pathways and aptitudes and hope that parents/carers will be able to support in making these important educational decisions.
