Options Information
Throughout the Spring term students in Year 9 engage with the Key Stage 4 options process. They learn about the core GCSE curriculum that they will study and engage in the options process, selecting the subject preferences that will enable them to further develop as influential women of the future.

At Challney High School for Girls the compulsory core curriculum in Years 10 and 11 comprises of:
English
Physical Education
Mathematics
Religious Education
Science
Personal Development
Students select a further three preferences from the options on offer to complete their curriculum.
The options process concludes on the 14th March 2025 by which time we will have asked parents or carers to approve their daughter’s final preferences. Students will be introduced to this process in January through an options information assembly where they will be given a detailed introduction to the process and receive a copy of the options information booklet. This booklet will also be uploaded to the school website at that time.
The options information evening for pupils, parents and carers will take place on Thursday 27th March 2025. This evening provides an opportunity for parents and students to speak with their core subject teachers and learn further details of the options available.
