What are they doing during the next 4 weeks?
Most the high schools around here did GCSE options in yr8 but DS (yr8 right now) school will do it in yr9, so therefore during yr9 they will be finishing KS3 not already in GCSEs.
I phoned school today to ask about when would I best plan to take a holiday when DS is in yr9. I know not ideal to take him out in term time but I am trying to see family 4000 miles away who don't meet up very often and one of the few good dates is in May 2014, and I am trying to juggle best time for other DC, too. Student Support centre thought May was pretty safe, said Feb would be a huge problem, they do assessments in Feb.
Is that consistent with your experience, what are your yr9s doing in the next 3-4 weeks?
