DD is in Y9 at a local grammar school. They have 35 periods of 50 minutes a week. In Y10/11 this is split as
Maths 4 periods - 3 hours 20 minutes
English Lit/Lang 3 periods each so 5 hours combined
Triple Science 3 periods per science so 7.5 hours combined
Combined Science 2 periods per science so 5 hours combined + 1 extra period in English and 2 in maths (this is for the bottom set only, top 3 do triple)
4 options - 3 periods/2.5 hours each
RE - 1 period
PE - 2 periods
PSHE/Citizenship - 1 period
I went to school in Scotland so had less options and to me this looks like not a lot of time per subject. Is this normal? What is it like in your child's school.
