It seems DS will only be allowed to chose 3 options, does this seem less than other schools.
He has to take
English Language and Literature
Maths
triple science
OCR ict (has already started this)
RE and Citizenship
He is then only allowed to chose 3 more subjects one of which has to be technology because he got his place in the school on the technology apptitude criteria, this is the first we have heard of this but he wants to take electronics so that is not a problem
However that only leaves him two choices, is this normal?
Also school are thinking of offering a twilight BTEC photography which is one of DS's hobbies so he is interested in doing that, but was also thinking of doing twilight RE to make a full RE GCSE.
Is it realistic to do two twilight courses? from what we were told at parents evening last year the RE twilight is one session after school a week debating although am not sure how much extra "home/course work" is involved?
