Key Stage 4
The School operates a three-year Key Stage 4 where pupils sit GCSEs across both Year 10 and 11. Across Years 9, 10 and 11, most pupils will follow a combination of subjects which will enable them to achieve the English Baccalaureate. The primary focus is to ensure that every pupil makes above expected progress in English and Mathematics.
