Options Blocks
We are determined that our curriculum should be based upon our students’ wants and needs. For this reason, we will not block subjects until after the first round of options closes on 11 January. We hope that this will lead to a high proportion of students being able to take their first choice subjects. However, some students may not be able to take their first choice subjects and this will be discussed at our consultation evening on 7 February 2024.
