It is recommended, though not a requirement, that schools use topics from within a single ‘year’ range within each year in order to ensure a thorough spread of curriculum requirements is covered, e.g.

Each ‘year’ group has science topics covering Biology, Physics, Earth Science/Astronomy and Chemistry

Each ‘year’ group has historical, geographical, and cultural study
