Btw English isn't my 1st language. Sorry to have to ask this question if someone has already done so before. As I really don't understand the England's Ed system. My ds's school is still using the old money I think. His end of yr8 report showing 12 subjects ie Eng, Maths, Science....... Anyway he has achieved a mixture of 5As and 6Bs/Cs sort of half and half. I believe he must be very behind because most of MN's kids have got way higher than that by the end of year 8. Also my ds is very disappointed by his maths result a 5A so he has to move down to the second bottom set. He is worried that he will have to take a easier GCSE paper. Is it true that there are two or more levels of GCSE papers for maths or any subjects? He also want to do more science but will his maths score affect his options? Any experts' opinions?
