A message from Mr Thompson - Head of Year 9

Year 9 is a really important year for young people where they continue to develop as young people whilst starting to look ahead to GCSE pathways. Throughout Year 9, pupils will be guided in making their GCSE subject choices so they are in the strongest possible position when they start Year 10. Year 9 is all about choice, not only in their choice of GCSE's but also in the choices they make in day-to-day life. In Year 9, we start to look at our thoughts, emotions and how they impact the choices we make. The more we understand our thoughts and emotions, the better, more informed choices we can make.
