He's done well overall 4&5 in History and English. 7s for Maths, Biology, Chemistry, Computer Science and a distinction for his Engineering BTEC.
2 for Chinese which was always a nonsense for him but he had to take a language. Shockingly, for him, a 3 in Physics.
Physics is his favourite subject and one he hopes(ed) to do at A level.
I could write it off as a bad day and hope he does better in the actual exam but he also got a 3 in Physics in the July mock and I did that then.
I'm struggling to understand how a child who does well in Maths, Engineering and the other science subjects and has a genuine interest in this subject can be performing so badly.
Would it be ok for me to ask the teacher to explain what is going wrong and how we (home and school) can support him to meet what I think is clear potential in this subject, given his strong performances in related subjects?
