Some subjects at this level will be new to most students. Anyone wishing to select one of these subjects will be expected to achieve Grade B or above in a closely related area at GCSE, e.g. English (for Drama & Theatre Studies / Government & Politics), Music (for Music Technology) or Mathematics (for Computing / Psychology).
Less academic students must not choose new subjects on the grounds that these are something they have 'not yet failed at'! If you have difficulty choosing at least two of your four subjects from among those you already study, this may be a sign that A Level at SHSB is not the best choice for you. You should then be prepared to look elsewhere and enrol for a more vocational course of study.
