Year 9 into GCSE Options

In Year 9, students at Laureate Academy choose their KS4 options to study during Year 10 & 11. This is an exciting opportunity for students to choose the subjects they are passionate about to continue studying over KS4. To help students make the decisions best for them we will aim to offer support and guidance when they make their choices. 

Options Booklet - September 2026

*Please note that the below booklet shows the options available for students who started their KS4 studies in September 2026. The options booklet for current Year 9s is yet to be released.
