Students make choices during year 9, selecting Key Stage 4 courses to begin in year 10. All students still have regular Physical Education and Personal, Social and Health Education which are not examined.

Core:

All students study Mathematics, English Language and Literature, Sciences and Religious Studies.

In Science, students will either take separate sciences (3 GCSEs) or combined science (2 GCSEs), this is determined towards the end of the course with the decision depending on projected outcomes.

Options:

Students are supported in selecting preferences through information events, conversations with their subject teachers and careers advice such as the Morrisby survey.

All courses finish in year 11, allowing students to transition to Key Stage 5 courses.
