GCSE Options Evening – 13th February

Published 27 January, 2025

Great Marlow School is holding its Year 9 GCSE Options Evening on 13th February 2025.

All Year 9 students, their parents and carers are invited to attend. There will be a presentation in the hall followed by the opportunity to visit representatives from all of the departments offering GCSE options.

The evening starts promptly at 6.00 pm and staff will be available until 7:45 pm. You will shortly receive a letter that details the exact timings of the presentations for the different Year 9 form groups, who are in grouped in one of the three Houses. GMS does this because the school is unable to accommodate all parents/ carers and students in the hall at any one time.    

An animated Options Booklet for 2025-27 cohort is available under Learning – Year 9 GCSE Options’ Information.

A downloadable pdf is also available under Publications – GCSE Options Booklet

This is an important process, GCSEs are crucial milestones and studying for them is essential, therefore, it is important to make the best choices based on careful consideration of the options.  This is the first real opportunity students have had to select subjects they wish to study. It marks the start of planning for their future; the decisions they make now will have an impact on post 16 and career choices.

There is no parking available on site. We do though have provision for blue badge holders who are attending the evening. 

Please be considerate of the local area if you are using a car to attend the evening and please do not obstruct driveways of the residents who live on Bobmore Lane or any of the roads nearby.
