Supporting Students’ Next Steps

Year 9 families attend a successful Options Evening at Samuel Whitbread Academy.

Earlier this month, we were delighted to welcome Year 9 students and their families to our annual Options Evening. The event provided an important opportunity for students and parents/carers to learn more about the range of GCSE and BTEC pathways available as students begin to consider their next steps in education.

Throughout the evening, families had the chance to meet teaching staff, ask questions and explore the subjects on offer, gaining a clearer understanding of course content, assessment and progression routes. Staff and students were on hand to share their experiences and expertise, helping to guide informed and confident choices.

A huge thank you to everyone who attended, and to the staff and students who generously gave their time to support the event. Year 9 options will open on Monday, 2nd February 2026. For those who would like to explore the options further, click here.
