Welcome to the KS4 Options 2010 - 2012
This period is a crucial time in the lives of the young people in Year 9. You will be making decisions that affect, not only your school career at GTS, but also the rest of your lives. It is important that you think carefully about your next steps in education and it is essential that both the school and your parents support you in the process of making these decisions.
These web pages contain most of the information about the choices and courses you can take next year. It is important that you talk to your tutor, subject teachers, and parents to get a full picture of what is on offer. Read the pages of the courses you are interested in and talk to Yr 10 and 11 pupils who follow them now to get more information.
