Key Stage 4 |
| |
Pupils in their last half term of year 9 start preparation for the AQA modular exam. |
| |
In year 10 all pupils are timetabled for maths at the same time. This gives us maximum flexibility. They are grouped into 10 teaching classes, dependant on ability and follow a differentiated course. |
