Key Stage 4
At the end of Key Stage 3 students select their GCSE courses. All Year 9 students are provided with advice to help guide them about their GCSE options. This advice ensures that each student is fully informed regarding the mix of courses selected, leaving open maximum options for the Sixth Form and future career choice.
The GCSE examinations are completed at the end of Year 11 and include a core of:
- English Language, English Literature, mathematics, biology, chemistry, physics (as 3 separate GCSEs)
- One humanity subject, chosen from geography and history
- One modern foreign language (MFL), chosen from French, German or Spanish.
Students also choose 2 GCSEs from the following optional subjects. They are given a free choice and every effort is made to meet those choices:
Computing, Drama, Food Technology, French, Geography, German, History, Physical Education, Product Design, and Spanish.
Students achieve 10 full GCSE qualifications in total. In addition, students follow non-examination courses in PSHE, physical education and religious education.
