Year 9 (ages 14 to 15)
Year 9 corresponds to Charlotte Mason's Form IV, the year in which your child turns 15. If your child will be writing GCSE's, it is advisable to compare the specific GCSE requirements with the scope and sequence of each of the Between the Lines Lesson Plans and if there are any gaps, to supplement from this year onwards.
