hello everyone,
i am new to this site not sure how it all works.
my daughter came home yesterday very up set that she could not pick the subjects she had set her heart on picking for a gcse for the past two years because they are not in her band options.
i have spoke to the school this morning and they are going to give her access to some off the gcse lesson which she has a choice of but mine and her disappointment is not that she is unsure of the lesson textiles, photography and hospitality but that the lessons are not going to help her active qualification in the areas in which she see's her self working in either childcare or a social worker. she has always had her heart set on history, art, graphics and sociology which she likes, enjoys, had her teacher ask her to pick because she is good in them and help her achieve her personal goals.
i understand as along as she gets good grades when she finishes her gcse's in 2 years she can then move on to the subjects of her choice and pursues her carer path then, but why waste 2 years on a subjects she does not find inspiring or interested in.
