Key Stage 4
Key Stage 4 (KS4) is designed for students aged 14-16, encompassing Years 10 and 11. This critical phase focuses on preparing students for their GCSE exams by offering a more specialized curriculum. During KS4, students engage in core subjects like English, Maths, and Science while also selecting optional subjects that align with their interests and future aspirations. This stage not only equips students with essential knowledge and skills for further education, apprenticeships, or work but also plays a vital role in shaping their academic achievements. KS4 helps students make informed decisions about their post-16 pathways and future careers.
