What the hell is happening with BTEC Exams tomorrow?

My vulnerable DH is expected to go into college tomorrow (and for the next 3 weeks) to supervise hundreds of students doing BTEC exams. It’s a shambles...

  • most of the invigilators are older retired people
  • the students have lost 6 months of teaching the rest mainly online
  • many have been isolating
  • some are now too scared to come in.
  • the college has to Covid test everyone of them the day before so many public transport journeys.

What a shitshow. The students are furious that gcse and a levels have been cancelled again and BTECs haven’t.

Does that mean they're going off teacher assessments?
