dd got her GCSE results today- she did brilliantly but SHE is is really disappointed and in floods of tears
Her main disappointment is her English language and English Lit - se was really expecting an A for both and has got As - yes I know this is still brilliant - BUT the marks for a couple of her papers were surprisingly low - she got a C in one paper, and B in 2 others. All her coursework has been A, her school assessments and past papers have all been A*. She worked really hard, and felt the exams went OK so is really shocked about the grades.
School have said all English marks have come back low and they are going to look into it. Obviously we are just telling her how brilliantly she has still done - but just wondering if anyone else has noticed a bit of an odd grade/mark for English (board was WJEC)
what are our options - can we ask for her scripts to be returned to school to see what happened? Any point asking for it to be remarked?
I'm so sad for her. She has done so well, but is still so disappointed in herself.
