My son was looking forward to dropping mfl in yr 10 (although hes targeted to get a B)but now having been informed about the english bac he feels that he HAS to take french or spanish. I am concerned that he will not enjoy the subject and wonder how important the bac is to pupils. His school have informed us that most uni s will only take pupils with the bac, but I am realy confused as I didnt think that gcse s were taken into concideration at uni. I feel completely out of my depth with this matter as I dont seem to fully understand the whole further ed system ( never having had the oppotunity to go through it myself).
I hope some one can offer some advice, please.
He has to hand his options paperwork in tommorow!
