Year 10

OPTIONS

The College has much experience and information available, including prior assessment and predictive data to assist in making the right decisions and will advise on how to decide on the appropriate course.

There are three core subjects all students must study:

  • Maths
  • English
  • Science.

Where there is more than one course available within the subject areas, the College will enter students for the most appropriate course based on results in Key Stage 3.

There are also three statutory subjects that all students must study:

  • Physical Education
  • Religious Education
  • Learning for Life and Work.

All the courses we offer are Level 2 courses (GCSEs or equivalent), these include: BTEC Level 2, OCN Level 2, Level 2 Certificates, Applied GCSEs, General GCSEs or Occupational Studies. Students must choose subjects that help them prepare for the next stage of their education or employment and which enable them to gain their best results.  Our ultimate aim is that all students will achieve at least 5 GCSEs at grade C or higher.
