Welcome to the page for parents and carers and students of Year 9.

We continue to work together as a strong team as the students complete key stage 3 and start to plan for their GCSEs. In Year 9 students will continue to work on a broad curriculum designed to enrich their knowledge in all subjects as well as help them to start to develop the skills that they will need in their GCSE courses next year. Students also participate in Leadership and Challenge which gives them the opportunity to develop a practical skill and qualification in a range of areas. The Duke of Edinburgh bronze award is one such qualification available.

We hope that this page will support children and parents alike, providing you with a point of contact for the Year 9 tutor and pastoral team, and other useful information.
