Choosing your Options

Students 

Please make sure you have read through all the information available, sought guidance and asked any questions you have before completing the options form.

Remember, you will have to study these courses for two years and will not be able to change your mind part way through Year 10! It is really important that you make the best choices for you. The deadline for submitting Options Forms is not until Friday 21st February (the last day of this half term) so you have plenty of time to think carefully about your choices.

Your Form Tutor will have issued your Option Form. If you have lost your form or were absent, please see either your Form Tutor, Miss Stannard or Mr Briggs. A blank form is also provided below.

If you are using a blank Option Form please check your pathway carefully from your report or ask your form tutor.
