The most important subjects for most careers are English, Maths and Science. Maths is essential for careers in Business or Computing, Science is essential for careers in Health, Environment and Medicine etc. English is essential for careers in Journalism, Law, Media, Communications and Drama.
You must remember that if you choose two subjects of a similar kind then you will deprive yourself of another area of experience. At this stage breadth and balance are the most important. Do not limit yourself in this respect unless you are very sure already of your strengths and likely career path.
BTEC courses are more closely related to the practical aspects of the subject that you would come across in the world of work.
Please note that subjects which are under-subscribed may not be in the final offer or they could be combined with another year group in order to enable the class to run. The best option for our pupils will be at the centre of every decision that is made.
