Curriculum
Most Cheney students take three fully linear A-Levels or BTECs, with a small minority taking four. The EPQ and Duke of Edinburgh's Award are also available on an ‘opt-in’ basis. UCAS predictors are based on robust, high-stakes ‘UCAS Predictor Exams’ sat in June, and on teacher professional judgement.
