Raising aspirations is important to us at Casterton because we know ability is not fixed and, under the right circumstances, every young person can achieve wonderful things. Rest assured, whether it's a Russell Group University or a higher-level apprenticeship, we will help your child go all the way.
Students make their GCSE option choices in Year 9. Everyone studies English, Maths and Science and either History, Geography or both. Additionally, there is a wide choice of subjects, including a Modern Foreign Language, Computer Science, Art, Drama, Music, Religious Studies, Design, Food, Business, Health and Social Care, Sport and IT. We guide you and your child carefully through the process and provide excellent career advice along the way. Many of our students progress to A Levels or T Levels post 16 and some take an apprenticeship route.
For students going into Year 10 in the 2026-27 academic year, look at our Year 9 options presentation here and Year 9 Pathways booklet below for more information.
