Choosing your GCSE Options

At The Forest School there are core subjects that you must study, but you can choose the other subjects - these are called your Options. 

Not sure what to choose? 

If you are not sure about what to choose, talk to your teachers, your tutor and your parents, carers or guardians or have a look online at National Careers Service or investigate through Future Finder 

GCSE gradings changed in Sept 2015.  A*-C became 9-1. Please see the Ofqual explanation of the way grades have altered. 

We are committed to achieving the highest standards in our schools. That’s why we have revised our GCSE qualifications in England to make them more demanding. We have done this so our young people have the knowledge and skills they need to succeed in 21st century Britain, and to match those of their peers in high-performing education systems elsewhere in the world.
