Welcome to Year 9 Options

At Seahaven Academy we design the school curriculum to provide a broad and balanced experience for all students, whatever their starting points, to enable them to achieve the success they deserve and open doors to future opportunities.

We promote the highest expectations for all and pride ourselves on ensuring that Further and Higher Education can be accessible to all. We want students to feel confident and prepared when they make decisions about their next steps, having taken part in a range of careers education, information and guidance sessions and activities throughout their time at Seahaven Academy.

Options Evening will allow you to hear from members of teaching staff as they offer explanation and guidance on their subjects in person.  There will be an opportunity for you to ask questions face to face or via email options@seahavenacademy.org.uk.

Year 9 students have access in school to careers advice via their tutors, the Head of Year, Key Stage Directors and careers staff.

Key Stage 4 pathways

There are two pathways available at Seahaven Academy, designed to meet the academic needs of our students and to ensure a broad and balanced curriculum is provided for everyone:

•     EBacc pathway: students study the core curriculum plus Geography or History, and French at GCSE level. In addition, one other optional subject is chosen.
•     Attainment pathway: students study the core curriculum plus Geography or History. Some students may study French (if appropriate) and one or two optional subject choices.
