My DD spent some of the last year and a half in hospital and missed a lot of school. As a result she passed 4 GCSE's and failed the other 4 all with grade 3's. (She was originally expected A's and B's before she got ill.)
So her existing school won't keep her on. The college where she intended to go need 5 GCSE's so that's out too. We're stuck with what to do now.
The hospital school where she took her exams were supposed to apply for special consideration but it looks like they didn't, which is a pity as it might have increased one of the grades to a pass. Too late now.
We can't find out if any of the marks are close to the grade boundaries for a possible remark as neither her school or the hospital school are open until September and not answering the phone now.
Do we have any options as it seems everyone has turned their backs on DD?
