DD did well in her end of year tests (year 9) and has been offered triple science. Only the kids who get a level B1 and above are offered it.
She is adamant she isn't interested in science enough to bother doing the triple. Can someone explain it all to me please. Am I right in thinking that double science will result in just one GCSE and the triple is a potential three?
DD wants to be a primary school teacher so science isn't essential to her chosen career but I think she should at least try the triple as she then has a chance to drop back to double if the workload is too much. So nothing to lose.
She did not revise much at all for these tests and got an A so she must be very capable in the subject so seems silly not to do it.
