DD is entering year 11 at an independent boarding school but wants to move for 6th Form. She has some SEN issues which mean she gets 25% extra time for exams but she should do well at GCSE and is academically capable of A level work. However, she is unlikely to get top grades and I am wondering if she would be better taking a different route. She has confidence issues and I feel it would be better for her to be near the top of the class than the bottom!
A local college offers BTEC and she is keen to go the Open Day so we can all find out more. The problem is she's not clear on a career and so it is difficult to choose a course. She is attracted to equine, sport and animal care at the moment.
Does anyone have any words of wisdom, please?
