Year 9 Options Evening – Thursday 3rd March

A reminder that that Year 9 Options Evening is on Thursday 3rd March, in school, starting at 5.30pm. 

As part of the evening, there will be a presentation outlining how the options process works, what options are available and what pathways these options often support. It’s really important that you and your child attend this event to give them the best introduction to this process and we do hope you can join us. Subject leaders and teachers will be available for you to talk to about specific choices during the evening too. 

Further information about the evening, will follow, nearer the time.
