Option Choices
Choice
We are very proud of the range of KS4 options we offer our students. With 16 available to choose from this year, we have again responded to student feedback and adapted the offering. Introducing this year the possibility of Citizenship and Religious Studies, we continue to offer Ancient History and building on its successful launch, Health and Social Care.
Options Event
The Options event held on Thursday 20th March 2025, presented the key information regarding the selection process for options. Key take aways are:
- All students must choose at least one from History and/or Geography
- Students choose a total of four first choices
- All student must choose two reserve options
- Art, 3D Design and Photography are not permitted to be taken together due to the type of qualification they are. One may be placed as a back up to the another, however, it will only be issued if the first choice is unavailable in your combination.
- We recommend students do not opt for an entirely academic or entirely creative route, creating a balance of both and examination types allows students to develop a wider range of skills for Post-16
