KS4 options

At Millthorpe we have the highest expectations of our young people and want them to gain high value qualifications for further education or employment. It is also important that students are given the opportunity to develop the personal and social skills necessary for success in the 21st century. We believe our Key Stage 4 curriculum supports both of these aspirations.

Options Evening

Each January, we hold an Options Evening for Year 9 students and their parents/carers.

This year’s Options Evening was held on Wednesday 22 January 2025.

The evening consists of a short presentation from Acting Principal, Mrs Rothenburg and Vice Principal, Mrs Armitage covering the options process including key dates, and an opportunity to visit and speak to the subject teachers for all the available subject options.

A copy of the presentation can be found here: Options Evening Presentation
