During the Year 9 option process students choose their curriculum for Key Stage 4. This involves a detailed and thorough process which includes with an introduction assembly to Key Stage 4, a 1:1 meeting with SLT to ascertain option choices and a working together event with subject leaders to gain more information about each subject on offer. Once the students' options have been confirmed they will receive a letter before summer which indicates what their curriculum offer will be for them when they move into Key Stage 4 studies.

Please see the example Options Booklet below so that you have a broader understanding of The Options Process at Armthorpe Academy, although there may be changes to this will be updated in January 2023 for current Year 9 students.
