Ds1 is in yr 10. He's not coping at all, occasionally school refusing. (Has ASD, OCD and anxiety, but not officially diagnosed)
Is he allowed to drop some subjects so he has less pressure on him to do the subjects he has to do?
He has been made to take geography as an ebac option, but he has no interest, will not work. I've asked if he can drop it, but his teacher says this will be a black mark against him when he comes to look for an apprenticeship in 2017.
Does anyone know if this is true? Would this be more damaging to him than a fail in the subject?
I know he has to have a C in English and maths or he has to carry on studying them.
