What is Opt 4?
At Nunthorpe, personalised learning is a priority for all of our students, and Opt 4 is one important way to make this a reality. Each Year Group has some choice but also some courses will be compulsory.
Opt 4 is an Enrichment Programme in which every student at Nunthorpe is able to participate in a variety of activities to enrich, challenge and engage. Opt 4 groups are mixed year groups and mostly mixed genders. The emphasis of Opt 4 courses, with the exception of a few, is for students to gain skills or abilities from their activities (we recognise that students need to have some “down time” as well!) that complements the academic skills gained in other subject areas.
With 1400+ students to place on approximately 80 courses it is inevitable that not all students will be able to have their first and second choice courses. Opt 4 takes place on a Wednesday afternoon where the usual timetable is cancelled.
