Year 9 virtual options information evening

This year we're holding our Year 9 options information evening virtually, for both parents/carers and pupils. It will be a series of drop in sessions for all subjects, teachers will talk about their subjects and you have the opportunity to go into breakout rooms for further discussion on the subjects. 

We're proud of the range of subjects and opportunities for pupils of varying interests, with a combination of GCSE's, plus BTECs and ASDAN, more vocational and life skills developmental choices.

Watch our video to find out more about all of our subjects!

We hope the evening is useful for both parents, carers and pupils to find out more about the range of subjects on offer at Key Stage 4. 

Below is a copy of the information posted and emailed home.

1. Details about the evening and a schedule of the virtual drop-in sessions.

Teachers will go through the Option information booklet with pupils in class and they can join us virtually to find out more direct from the subject teachers. 

If you have any questions please contact the subject teachers.
