Subject Choices
There are 28 subjects for you to select from in the Sixth Form.
We offer a broad range of courses which enables you to carefully select a programme of study which will play to your strengths and interests. Full details of each course are given in the Curriculum Choices booklet below.
Initially pupils are given a free choice of courses which are arranged in a timetable to accommodate as many combinations of choices as possible.
In Lower Sixth, all students choose 3 main courses to study. Please note that if you choose the Sport Diploma, you can only choose 1 additional course due to the size of the course (equivalent of 2 A levels). In addition, you will select from a range of enrichment qualifications which include:
- A 4th AS or A level
- Extended Project Qualification (EPQ)
- Courses in Cookery, Counselling and Sports Leadership
In the majority of cases, enrichment qualifications will be completed by the end of the Lower Sixth.
Upper Sixth students continue with 3 main courses, leading to 3 full A levels or equivalent qualifications. A small number of students, such as those studying Further Mathematics, may continue with 4 courses for the full 2 years.
