In Years 7 and 8 students study a wide assortment of subjects required by the National Curriculum, with a focus on English and Maths. During year 8, students begin the first stage of their options process. Alongside the core subjects, students undertake a programme of ‘guided option’ choices allowing for them to explore their optimal learning subjects whilst maintaining the breadth across the curriculum offer. Students choose from a series of ‘suites’:

• Humanities Suite
• Languages Suite
• Enterprise/Creative Arts Suite

Perins works with both parents and their child on a personal level before they select their Year 9 Options.

This enables them to make the best choice to help them achieve their ambition. Whichever route is opted for we are confident all students will leave Perins with a broad range of outstanding skills and qualifications.

There will be a range of opportunities to speak with subject and options staff during the process.
