[edit] The Class System

In the school for key stage 3 to 4, the sets of classes, grouped according to ability, are in numbers. There are two groups of numbers:

1 & 7 = Top Ability(extended)
2 & 8 = Top Ability
3 & 9 = Well above average
4 & 10 = Above Average
5 & 11 = Average and Below
6 & 12 = Support

Not all classes are grouped according to ability, particularly in KS3. For example, dance & drama, PE, music, design & technology, and art classes are all grouped randomly.

Both groups have separate subjects at separate times. In Year 9, each group has humanities, mathematics, languages and art/dance and drama/music at the same time as well as Physical Education.
