At Ysgol Aberconwy we aim to prioritise every student in year 9 when it is time to make decisions about options. As a result, we have considered how we can provide a personal, convenient and accessible approach to the process. We have decided that the best way to do this is to make the options information and applications forms available electronically on our school website rather than as paper copies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The timeline for the year group has been set out and can be seen below, so that all stakeholders are clear about the process and expectations. You will see that there are various points in the process where we plan to offer one to one discussions with subject teachers, form teachers and staff involved in the option process. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
