This is an important point in each young person’s school life and signifies a real opportunity for them to shape their future direction as they move into Key Stage 4. 

Each student will be asked to rank the options that are available in order of their preference to study them, please note all students will be allocated one of Geography, History or French as part of this process. 

To support decision-making during this process there will be a number of activities to support students and their families understand the options available to them. Please see below for information. 

Options Timeline: 

We ask that during the next few weeks, you take your time to discuss the options available to your child. Please guide them to make sensible choices based on the subjects they are performing well in and the subjects that they may want to continue with passed KS4 and try to steer them away from making choices based on the preferences of their friends.
