Our school have just announced the kids have to continue at school for lessons until the end of May in between their GCSE exams which start on 3rd May. We are in England. I have never heard of this before at any local school and definitely not at this school. Last year study leave started the week before GCSEs started.
Different students will be in each lesson as they have exams on different days and some will have exams on the official leaving day.
Is this just our school or a regular thing or a new government policy?

Surely if you are achieving 9s in mocks a school with low results and mixed ability teaching you have already demonstrated you can self study.

Surely those who dont want to revise will just mess around and stop those who want to learn revising same as in lessons now. Will they even have the teaching staff to cover all lessons? Are none of the teachers involved in the exams?
