Year 9 Options

Welcome to my Year 9 Options website. This is to provide you with as much information as possible about all the qualifications we offer here at Blackwood Comprehensive when you choose your options in Year 9. 

This is an exciting time in your school career, being able to choose the subjects you like or are good at, or both! The options you choose in Year 9 are a very important part of your learning journey. It is the first time you will have had some choice as to what you want to study, so it requires careful thought and consideration.

During the time when you are thinking about what options you would like to take, make sure you get as much information and advice as possible, from teachers, our careers advisor, your parents or carers and online using this website and the Careers Wales website.

I must remind you that it may not be possible to provide you with the exact combination you choose, due to a lack of staff or lack of pupils choosing an option. If any problems arise, all of this will be discussed with you in a one-to-one meeting with myself, and I will endeavour to make sure that you are on the right learning pathway.

If you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact me at school.

Assistant Head Teacher (Curriculum, Careers & Post-16)
