Year 9 Options 2026-2028

Dear parents and carers of Year 9 students, 

It is finally time for your child to choose their options.  Most students are excited at the prospect of this, as it is their first real opportunity to take control of their education.  It also allows conversations in school and at home about the courses and careers that they may follow when they leave school.  

Our approach at Bishop Luffa is to emphasise the opportunity that this gives students to really immerse themselves in subjects that they enjoy; however, it is also important that students do not narrow their focus so much that they limit their options when they leave school.  The role of teachers, parents and carers is to help the children to find that balance.  

There are a number of key dates during the process: 

If you have any questions, please contact your child’s Head of House or Mr Stuart White, Deputy Head, who will be running the options process.

Thank you for your support,

Austen Hindman

Head Teacher
