Uk school options

So i am currently 15 and attending a school in the uk and was wondering about something that my school did a while ago. So when i was choosing my GCSE options i was allowed to choose from one 'option block' because i was in top set for all of my classes which was fine with me because it was quite varied. But then, they said that top set and second set had to pick french as one of our options, it wasn't a core subject but one of the teachers decided that we should all be forced to take french at GCSE level because they thought it would benefit us all in the future. Are they allowed to do that? They literally in effect took away one of our GCSE choices and didn't let us choose wether we wanted to or not
