KS4 Options

Welcome to KS4 Options

During KS4 your child will begin to study the courses that they will pursue until the end of Year 11. In preparation for this, your child will be required to make their GCSE Option choices.  

As you know, the options process is an important phase in your child’s school life. Students, for the first time, will have an opportunity to choose subjects which will shape the remainder of their educational lives.  Fortunately, as a large secondary, we are able to offer a wide variety of courses, both academic and vocational.  Our aim is to provide courses that will provide students with a broad and balanced curriculum whilst still giving  each individual a degree of choice
