Courses and Option Blocks
We continue to work in collaboration with staff and students to offer courses that are challenging, exciting and relevant for the students. Choosing subjects of genuine interest for students is the beginning of specialisation and will ensure we are able to support students in building on academic success and prepare students for their adult life. Extensive enrichment opportunities are also available for all students to ensure their learning experience is as fulfilling and dynamic as possible.
Select one subject only from each separate option box in the table below (3 subjects in total).
We recommend only taking 3 courses but do make exceptions on a case by case basis.
Disclaimer – Please Note: the school reserves the right to cancel courses if there are not enough applicants. All courses are subject to change.
