*Please note that Southland's current qualification offer includes a pathway towards GCSE qualifications for our current year 10 and 11 students.
Southland's offers an adapted National Curriculum at KS3 to meet the needs of our students. Students will be assessed during KS3 to identify their individual needs and determine which qualification pathway is right for them at KS4. GCSE will not be part of our core offer. Instead, students will either complete OCR Entry Level English or an ASDAN Level qualification.
