As you approach the end of Year 9 and the first phase of secondary education (Key Stage 3), it is necessary to make some important choices about the courses you wish to follow at GCSE level. Les Varendes high School follows the Guernsey Curriculum which means all students study the same core subjects and choose from a limited number of options.
This website gives information about the choices available and some advice about making those choices. You will receive further information in PSHCE lessons and from teachers and tutors.
We will try, as far as possible, to enable you to study the options you choose, but you must be aware that certain constraints including:
● staff availability;
● the arrangement of subjects in timetable blocks;
● viable teaching set numbers;
mean student preferences cannot be guaranteed.
