The year 9 Options process (KS4)
Choosing Options
In Key Stage 4 students study up to 10 GCSEs, depending on their ability. The varied options system allows for the study of three separate sciences, as well as two languages and a range of courses, including vocational options. We have produced lots of information to help students and their parents and carers make decisions about their options.
