Year 9 Options

Welcome to the Year 9 options process. This year we have put together a virtual options process which we hope provides you with the information you need.

Please watch the videos below and read the digital booklet and information about the courses carefully.

If there are any subject specific questions departments will be providing time in lessons over the coming weeks where you can ask your teachers directly. Alternatively, please email the curriculum leader if there are any subject specific questions.

If you have a general question, for example about a combination of subjects you are considering taking, please book a slot for the options advisor evening on 17^th February.

We will attempt to meet the wishes of all students in their choices but it may not be possible to satisfy everyone. Our aim is to do everything we can to provide the widest possible range of courses.

I hope this advice and guidance provides you with the information you need and the opportunity to ask questions that will help with the decision process.

Please remember to complete and hand in your options form by Friday 4^th March.

Best wishes,

Mr. Douthwaite
