No, a secular state high school.

What else is compulsory?
I'm still struggling to get my head around this. Is it that the school feels 9 proper subjects are enough to deal with so you have to take one complete waste of time?

Maths, English, RE and Citizen are all compulsory.

Science as well surely.

Things have changed a bit in the millennia since I was your age
Am befuddled as to why anyone would take three science subjects if they didn't have to, but I am in the minority amongst geeks in this respect

What the hell's "Citizen" all about?

Citizenship, about the workings of the country.
Politics and shit.

It's an attempt to drill some ethics and responsibility into children.
I'm all for it.

Very, very basic politics. Not really a credible amount.
