Dd is yr 10 and has amongst other things, severe anxiety. She is doing well in other subjects, not hugely academic, but ok.
Science and ict fill her with horror. She does not understand the work and goes into panic mode. The school are excellent, have provided extra support but it has made no difference. She goes into meltdowns at test time, has run away and self harmed.
Now I couldn't care less if she takes these GCSE's. She is not going to pass them. Why prolong the agony for the next year and a half? (ict is a one year course)
I cannot see the situation getting better...it is destroying our family life as well.
