OK, so it's a couple of months or so before GCSE's begin. DS's best subjects are Chemistry, Physics & Maths; so his A Level applications mainly focus on those subjects. In November, his target grades for all three sciences were As. He didn't do brilliantly in his mocks and got a B and two Cs; but his predicted grades in all three sciences remained Bs, according to info provided at the parent's evening last month. To stay in his current school he would need an A and two Bs in science; to go to another local school to which he has applied, he would need to get those three Bs, and then there is a local college as the final back-up, where he could take A levels or BTECs. I've just seen his exam timetable, which shows that he has been put down for the foundation level exams in biology, which means a max grade of C is possible according to DS. No-one from the school has formally told us any of us this, which has huge implications for his future. (Also applies to one other subject, but that is not something related to his future intention, so I'm inclined to let it lie.) I will be phoning the school on Monday. What should I say, without swearing profusely? AIBU to be LIVID that they would think of doing that without discussing it with us properly?
