BURY CE HIGH SCHOOL
A Church of England Academy with the vision to empower all students to let their light shine.

KS4 Options

For the first three years at Bury Church of England High school, all students study an ambitious, broad and balanced KS3 curriculum.

As students come towards the end of year 9, they need to make choices about the subjects they would like to study in year 10 and year 11. At our school, we support all students throughout year 9 to make informed decisions about their KS4 course choices ensuring the child is at the heart of the decision.
