Young people will select a total of 8 Subjects in addition to English and Maths. They must choose at least 1 Science, 1 Creative Art, 1 Social Subject, and 1 Technology-based subject then have 4 more completely free choices. Young people will continue to receive 2 periods of Core PE, 1 period of PSHE, and 1 period of RME. From sesssion 2024/25 young people in S3 will also choose a project based learning course where they will spend a double period each week exploring a project with cross-curricular links that relate to real life contexts and/or career pathways.
