Year 11 Careers Letter
 |
19th September 2024
Dear Parent/Carer of a Year 11 Student,
Your child has been studying GCSE Sciences throughout years 9 and 10, which have been taught separately as Biology, Chemistry and Physics. There are two different qualifications we can enter students for; Separate Sciences (3 GCSE qualifications) or the Combined Science qualification (worth 2 GCSE qualifications).
Based on individual results of the upcoming October assessments and using previous assessment data, we will be making a decision on whether your child will be entered for the GCSE Combined Sciences or GCSE Separate Sciences qualification. This does not affect the day-to-day teaching or learning of our students, as they will continue to study each science separately.
We will contact you again following October’s assessment week to inform you which qualification your child has been entered for. If in the meantime you have any questions regarding the different courses then please do not hesitate to contact me at George.Foy@Biddenham.beds.sch.uk
Kind regards,
George Foy
Assistant Headteacher
KS4 Raising standards Leader
