KS4 Courses
Some courses are compulsory and all students will study them, these include English (language and literature), Maths, PE, and Citizenship. In Science students will be offered the double or the triple award based on prior attainment. If you are keen to study the triple award, speak to Mr. Davies, Principal on Options evening.
All students will choose one of the two humanities subjects - geography or history, and students are encouraged to study a language because of the long-term benefits to their careers of doing so.
