Years 7, 8 and 9 (Key Stage 3)

Pupils in Years 7 to 9 follow a traditional programme, which draws on the best of and goes beyond the National Curriculum.
 
The subjects studied are English, Mathematics, Science, Religious Studies, History, Geography, ICT and Technology, Art, French, Music, PE, and Games.  Personal, social and health education are catered for by our Pastoral Programme.  Year 7s also have a Drama lesson.
 
In Year 8 students continue to study French and also study Latin. In Year  9 students can continue to study French and can take up a second modern language, we currently offer German, Spanish (preparation for GCSE) and Spanish for Business and Leisure.

Years 10 and 11 (Key Stage 4)

In Years 10 and 11 the curriculum needs to be broad and balanced, in order to keep as many doors open for subsequent choices to be made at A-level and then for degrees and careers. 

Core GCSE subjects:

English Language
English Literature
Mathematics
The Sciences (Science GCSE Year 10/followed in Year 11 by Additional Science or Psychology or Biology, Chemistry and Physics)
Religious Studies (Religious Studies GCSE is taken at the end of Year 10 allowing many students to progress to an AS in Critical Thinking in Year 11.)
