Yr 11 Dd1 taking 9 good GCSEs (Predicted 1A*, 5A, 2B), already has B in Eng Lang.
Also A in ICT equiv not included in the 9.
They all do compulsory BTEC sport, which she was aiming for at least a B equiv in, has produced some pieces of the work at a higher standard, but grades slipping and work behind. Mainly due to missed lessons for medical appointments and other subject assessments. There is the possibility of catch up sessions, but she would rather spend the time on other subject revision, as determined to beat her predictions.
Her 6th form applications were only interested in GCSE subjects.
Will the BTEC result be included on same certificate as GCSEs with the same board, or can she "lose it" completely? If not, will it look back on Uni Apps if she ends up with a scraped pass or even a fail?
