Dd (year 9)has to take : English lit and language, maths, a humanity and a language. She wants to take
English language
English literature
Maths
Double science
Drama
Music
Spanish
Was thinking of history but teacher told me that the new syllabus is dull and with too much content! Even though she says dd is capable of getting an A. So thinking Classical Civilisation instead as it frankly looks quite easy!
Possibly RS
DH thinks these are too 'soft'. That she should do triple science and history or geography instead of classical civilisation.
Dd is clever and predicted a 7 or 8 in maths, and As in most other subjects.
I'd rather she did easier subjects that she found interesting. She wants to do drama, English and history a level.

Does it really matter what subjects you take for GCSE as long as you get good grades?
