An academic information night for Year 8 boys going into Year 9.
As your sons will be entering Year 9 next year, for the first time they will have some choice over their pattern of study for Years 9 and 10. Apart from the mandatory subjects, the students study two additional subjects commonly referred to as electives.
On 21st June the Heads of Departments will be available between 6pm to 6.30pm to answer any questions that you may have regarding the elective subjects.
The attached booklet outlines the pattern of study that the students undertake over Years 9 and 10, including the elective subjects available.
If you cannot make this evening alternatively, you may wish to phone or email the relevant Heads of Department with any queries.
The actual subject selection process will be done online early next term. Details on how to do this process will be emailed out closer to the time.
The most important thing is that the boys are selecting elective subjects that they will enjoy. These are important decisions to make as they will influence the staffing and resourcing decisions the College has to make for the 2017 timetable.
