We look forward to seeing you then.

Year 9 Options 2025
Online Options Booklet
This booklet runs through details for the courses undertaken as part of the core/compulsory KS4 curriculum as well as each one of the option courses. It also provides information about how to allocate your choices across each option block.
Links to Careers guidance and presentations.
Even at this age there are very few choices you can make that would completely close off your future opportunities. The choices you make at the end of Year 11 will be much more significant in terms of your long term plans. However, there are some links that you may find interesting to look at. They may even get you thinking about a change in career!
