Welcome to the main Options section for S2 pupils making subject choices to study in S3/4.
This area has a wide selection of information, resources and links needed to make informed choices as you progress through Grantown Grammar School. Please take the time to go through these sections in order to ensure you make the right choices to support your future career path.
S2 Pupils - you will be guided through this site over several weeks in school by Mr Wilson and the Guidance staff. In this time you will be given tasks to do in and out of school. This will create opportunities for you to discuss your choices with all relevant parties to ensure you are fully supported with your decisions.
S2 Parents - please go through these sections with your child and engage in discussions to challenge their thoughts/opinions about their future. We will hold an options information evening on Tuesday 11th February where we will take you through the process and options available. There will be opportunities to discuss your child's Options with Mr Wilson and the Guidance team.
Key Support Staff :
Your Guidance teacher Mr Abenheimer or Mrs da Costa - speak to your guidance teacher if you have any questions about your options process
Your subject teachers - speak to your subject teachers to ensure you know exactly their recommendations for progress into S3/4. (This information is also available in your Gradebook)
Mr Wilson - If you have any further questions that can not be answered by the staff detailed above, my door is always open.
