Hi, does anyone know whether I can refuse to take the "options" my son's grammar school offer? There are 'Core Curriculum' subjects that the school says the boys MUST take - English, English Literature, Mathematics, RE, ICT, Science, PHSE & Citizenship and PE. The remaining 4 subjects will be chosen from the option blocks.
PE? PHSE? RE? Why on earth does he HAVE to do those? That means he'll have to drop some of the stuff he shines at - history, geography, French, Spanish, art, drama. That sounds nuts! Grrrr.
