*Time allocation may change due to individual needs eg. in Key Stage 3 French may be replaced by another English session if Literacy is a particular area of concern. At Key stage 4 the allocation may need altering to cater for needs e.g. a child who is doing GCSE Citizenship may need more than one session. The core subjects would usually be increased rather than decreased in line with needs.
