Selection of GCSE option subjects takes place in Year 9 following a programme of information meetings, consultations and interviews to ensure the suitability and educational soundness of courses for individual students.

The Science course leads to double GCSE certification. For English, students have the opportunity to study both English Language and English Literature to GCSE level. Religious Education can lead to a full or a half GCSE.
