DS got a grade 4 in both his English GCSEs. His English teacher just rang me to say his total mark on English Language was 85. If he'd got 86, he'd have got a grade 5.
I think it's worth having it remarked - what do you think? Any other subject, probably not. But I think English Language - like Maths - is a subject that lots of places look at in the future.
It doesn't affect his immediate future as he did really well in his other subjects and is comfortably into Sixth form doing A Levels.
What do you think? His teacher pointed out that re-marked papers can go down as well as up, but she would be very surprised if his went down.
