This is a questionnaire so that you can start to think about option choices and the School can start to design the timetable for next year. It gives us an idea of the subject choices you are thinking about and helps us make any changes before we print the options booklet.
You do not have to make your final decision until the last week of term.
In Year 9 you must continue to study English, Mathematics, Science and PE. You have choice over the other subjects you study.
