GCSEs the OTO Way

Though it might seem like GCSEs are the only goal, there is so much more to OTO then just exams. In fact, many of us believe that good exams results results are often just one of the by-products of a good education. We still stay true to our principles for our GCSE curriculum and approach these two years with the same focus on projects, real-world learning, exploration and fun that makes OTO special.

Curriculum and Subjects

Just like in Lower Secondary, learners in GCSE study through Projects, Heart, Big Questions and Pursuits that cover Maths, English, and Science. In addition to these subjects, learners can also study optional subjects from the arts to the humanities to the languages. At OTO, we don't put any pressure on students to take a certain or minimum number of GCSEs - the choice is up to you and what you feel comfortable with. 

Just like in Lower Secondary, those in our GCSE programme can still experience expert-led "Pursuits" and "Big Questions" that run through the year and give learners a chance to dive into curated material from our teaching team on topics as diverse as "video game philosophy" and "cryptocurrency".

GCSEs at OTO are so much more than just about passing exams. Over the time spent on our GCSE programme, learners will leave with a wealth of key skills and knowledge that sets them up for further education, future employment and beyond.
