Many students will use their Key Stage 4 study as a platform for Post 16 courses at Ken Stimpson Community School.
Key Stage 4 work offers an opportunity for a fresh start, although you will notice progression in most subjects from the work covered in Years 7 and 8.
All students will study the following core curriculum:
- English
- Science – Combined Science or Triple Science
- Mathematics
- Physical Education
- PSHE and Wellbeing
In addition, Citizenship, Careers, Enterprise and Work-related Learning, Information, Advice and Guidance will be delivered via integration into PSHE.
Which subjects may students study?
The curriculum pathways indicate a number of subjects within each block. Students are required to select a subject from each block. The same subject cannot be selected multiple times. Students must select at least one subject from the following:
- Computer Science
- History
- Italian
- Geography
Personal Interview
You (hopefully accompanied by your parent/carer) will have an interview with a member of the Leadership or Pastoral Team; this will be an opportunity for you to talk further about your preferences and career aspirations. Available during discussion will be your target grades, Year 8 reports and other relevant information to help us guide you through the process of course selection.
