KS3: the current scheme of learning covers the National Curriculum and is based on the Exploring Science scheme. All students in KS3 are broadly banded. We aim to provide a solid grounding in the key concepts before starting KS4 midway through Year 9. 

KS4: most students will follow the AQA GCSE combined science trilogy specification (double award) while our most able learners will follow the separate sciences route (triple award).

KS5: A-level courses are offered in Biology, Chemistry and Physics, all of which are immensely popular with students, in addition to level 3 BTEC qualifications in Applied Science.
