Subject choices 5th year 2022/2023

Good evening everybody, Subject Choices for students going into 5th year were given out in school today and no doubt have arrived to your homes this evening. If your child was not in school today for any reason they can call to me tomorrow afternoon to collect their subjects. Every effort was made to ensure that as many students as possible received their choices. The vast majority of students received their first 3 choices and well over 90% of students received their first 2 choices. Where this did not happen it is either because two subjects a student wanted to do ended up being on at the same time (this is determined by student preferences for subjects) and/or that the preferred subject was oversubscribed or so undersubscribed that it is not possible to run it. Below are the subject codes that show the option blocks for 5th year next year. So you can see that if a student wanted to study Construction Studies and for example Physics, this would not be possible as they will be on at the same time. These option blocks are created based on the preferences of the students and accommodate the maximum possible preferred subject combinations. Languages appear on the lines but have always been compulsory in CPC (with the exception of those exempt). Option Block 1 Biol, Con St, Phys, Art, Fre, Ger,. Option Block 2 Geog, Hom Ec, Comp Sci, Mus, Fre, Ger Option Block 3 Ag Sci, Acc, Geog, Biol, Tech, His Option Block 4 Biol, Bus, DCG, Chem, Ag Sci, Fre What can seem like a very simple request of a change often is not straightforward at all as classes may be full or require a change from a subject you are happy with. However, where a change is possible it will be looked at. Please email (parent or guardian) me at joeleonard@cpckilcullen.com by Monday 23rd May with details and I will see what is possible.
