My DD is in the top set for science and and is currently doing a GCSE in Astronomy in one year as her class has virtually finished the Ks3 syllabus. We have just been told that they are cancelling the Astronomy GCSE as the new Triple Science GCSE is much harder and they need to start the GCSE course in year 9. I need a science teacher's point of view. Is this a an acceptable reason to give to the group? My daughter is upset as she has worked hard and is predicted to get an A grade. I would like her to finish the course, what should I say to the school?thank you in advance for responding.
