Key Stage 4 Curriculum Preferences
This is an exciting time for Year 9 pupils, as they start to consider which courses they want to pursue at GCSE for the next two years. Pupils will hear about the courses from their teachers in lessons, but below is a range of information to ensure you are as well informed as possible as you support your child through the process. On this page you and your child can access:
The Year 9 Key Stage 4 Preferences Booklet

If you have any questions after watching these videos and reading the booklet, please email KS4CurriculumEvening@saintcecilias.london
The deadline for submitting preferences has been extended to Monday 4th March 2024, after the Year 9 Parents’ Evening.
