Does anyone have experience or advice regarding how to get a school to allow your child to take the language choices we would like them to make? Ds is Italian and my daughter already studying this out of school doing gcse early. School asked and we responded about any pre gcse language choices although they don't guarantee them. We wrote in in good time and requested Spanish as good chance daughter is going to do languages going forwards and it's a good match to the Italian. School have responded saying we have no choice and she is down to do German. It's totally random and we do not get to choose!
This doesn't make sense to us and school will not meet us and say their decision is binding.
What rights do we have - is there a duty of care for the school to take our daughters future language ambitions into account?
Any experience on this / helpful info gratefully received. Thank u
