Towards the middle of Year 9, following contact with parents, careers advisers and teachers, pupils make their
choice of subjects for the GCSE exams which they will take at the end of year 11.  (See option choice sheets

In Information Technology, exams of the Royal Society of Arts and EDEXCEL are offered alongside GCSE exams.

It is possible in some subjects for pupils to move to a higher or a lower set.
