Frequently asked Questions
What is a predicted grade?
We need from you your most recently predicted grades for internal students this is your ISM grade where as the PPE may only be a section of your grade.
Can I pick more than one subject in an option block?
In an option block these lessons will be happening at similar times so it will cause clashes on your timetable. If you are finding it to difficult to find a combination of subjects that work with the option blocks- please book a phone consultation.
Will the option blocks change?
These option blocks will not change. They have been created from the dry run in November. On rare occasions we may put an additional class if numbers are high but I must stress this is rare.
I have made a mistake on the form can I reapply?
Yes you can. Please inform Mrs Whitson-Jones on sixthforminfo@churchdownschool.com and complete a new application form.
