Key Stage 4 Curriculum

Years 9 & 10

As pupils move from Year 8 into Year 9, they take a narrower range of subjects and specialise in their strength areas.

There are a number of subjects which are compulsory at key stage 4.

  • English
  • Mathematics & Numeracy
  • Double Science or Seperate Sciences (Triple Science)
  • Welsh
  • Religion, Values and Ethics
  • Sport & Games
  • Wellbeing

Pupils are able to select four other subjects from a wide range of academic and vocational courses. These are detailed on the Year 8 options page.

In some subject areas, pupils are ‘fast-tracked’ through two subject areas within one option line. For example, Art & Design and Graphics or Graphic Products and Engineering
