Just gathering peoples opinions on this one; do you think a shorter KS3 and longer KS4 would make sense?

No.

GCSE courses are designed to last 2 years. There isn't enough content in the maths GCSE to stretch it out that long. Our top sets do two GCSEs in the two years as it is.

No.

KS3 builds the skills necessary to do well at GCSE.
