Year 8 Choices Process 2023
This is the first opportunity in your school career where you are able to make choices about some of the subjects you will study. It is important that you spend time thinking carefully about your selection.

We hope that the advice and guidance from the recent parents’ evenings-along with Unifrog and the videos from new subjects below-will give you enough information to make an informed selection for your choices for next year.
You will have been sent a copy of the choices booklet, the link to which can be found below. The instructions for selecting your choices through the Google Form will be sent ready for the two week window of Monday 6th March to Monday 20th March 2023.
If you have any further questions, please contact your child's form tutor or email enquiries@hrs.education.
