Our secondary school held an online event this eve to discuss making subject choices for the S2 pupils going into S3. This year, thanks to COVID, they are apparently reducing their options from 12 choices to 9! 2 of those must be English & Maths. My DD is gutted - she was really looking forward to S3 and had already planned all her subjects. I can't believe they're reducing it by 25%. They say you can pick some others up again in S4 but, no matter how they dress it up, it really feels like these kids are missing out on a chunk of their education and opportunities. What will this mean for Highers, and for their Uni chances - won't they be disadvantaged? Would love to hear from other parents in the same boat, or teachers too. Thanks.
