On Wednesday, 12th February, Stretford Grammar School hosted its highly anticipated GCSE Options Evening, providing students and parents with a valuable opportunity to explore the wide range of subject choices available for their future studies. The event saw an outstanding turnout, with over 90% of the year group in attendance, eager to gather information and make informed decisions about their academic pathways.

The evening featured insightful presentations and discussions from Curriculum Leaders, offering students guidance on the subjects they could pursue at GCSE level. Subject teachers were available to answer questions, discuss course content, and outline the expectations and opportunities each subject presents.

Miss. Rawlinson, Progress Leader, expressed her enthusiasm for the event, stating, “It was wonderful to see so many students and parents engaging with the options process. Choosing GCSE subjects is a significant milestone, and this evening allowed students to explore their interests and aspirations with confidence.”

Mr. Price also provided essential guidance on the decision-making process, encouraging students to think carefully about their strengths, interests, and future aspirations. He emphasised the importance of keeping options open and making well-informed choices that align with both academic and career ambitions.

The event was a resounding success, ensuring that students are well-prepared to take the next step in their educational journey. With the knowledge and support gained from the evening, students now have the tools to make thoughtful and informed decisions about their GCSE options.
