All pupils commence the GCSE Science course in Lower Five (Year 10). There are two options available to the girls: Separate Sciences (which leads to 3 GCSEs in Biology, Chemistry and Physics) or Combined Science (which leads to 2 GCSEs). The decision between Separate and Combined is a collaborative one (involving pupil, teachers and parents) and is made towards the end of Upper Four (Year 9). In the case of new girls, the decision will be made as soon as possible after their arrival in Lower Five (Year 10).
All applicants are invited to attend our assessment day, during which they will sit entrance papers in Maths and English, followed by an online assessment and interview with the Principal. As part of the 13+ assessment, candidates will sit a further paper in a subject of their choice. Other scholarships (eg., art, sport, music, drama) will also be taken at this time.
Two or three GCSEs depending on programme of study. For each science there are theoretical and practical elements. All examinations will be taken at the end of Upper Five (Year 11). Paper 1: 50% Paper 2: 50%
