GCSE Option Blocks 2015-2017. These blocks have been designed to allow the most popular combinations of subjects to be possible, but also to reflect the belief that at GCSE pupils need a mix of practical, cultural, creative and traditionally academic subjects. Please consider our advice to create a balanced curriculum, tick the box next to your chosen subjects in each block, and in the space below choose one reserve subject in the event we are unable to offer your first 4 choices. We hope to provide all the subjects listed in each block, but it must be pointed out that all blocks are subject to alteration, depending on demand, and staffing arrangements for 2015.
