SUBJECTS ON OFFER

SUBJECT OPTIONS 

Based on our knowledge of combinations required for the most popular university courses and careers and the most popular choices from previous years, we have created our subject offer.

We will endeavour to give as many students as possible their first three subject choices within these options and we will have one to one discussions to try and meet each student’s needs.

Please carefully consider the subject entry requirements given below when making your initial choices. The combination of subjects you choose can be very important when going on to college, university or employment.

The deadline for the submission of your application is 30th April 2024, but we do still consider applications submitted after this date, if reasonable.
