Oh the joys of schools...
I really have heard it all now, my son has been forced to drop his options for a "skills" course that he does not want to do, was never consulted on or even knew about it, and nor was I for that, and had a lovely stern letter landed on my lap 4 week before the end of school and AFTER he had picked his options, that he can not do xxxx options, not becasue the course is over subscribed, under subscribed,lack of staffing or resources problems or even timetable clashes, but becasue they are convinced he will not get good grades?!?!
I do not even know where to begin on just how discrimitory this is, and have consulted with a number of solicitors whom are just waiting for the go ahead from to start porceedings.
I am still trying to clarify what their "good grades" are but knowing the school that would mean a A*-C surely they should be happy that he actually receives a grade that he can realistically pass considering his needs rather than what they want, what I find even more baffling is that the options they are blocking are options he is actually ok in!?!
Sorry, rant over I just had to get that off my chest, over the last couple of days I have just been sat in my house in disbelief.
