Student support suggesting DD withdraw from exams and course.

[BuntyFayreweather]

DD is in her first year of her course. After a meeting with student support she has said they recommended she didn't sit her exams or continue the course.
They stated she couldn't change subjects unless she did this. They won't allow her to return to the university.
She's got a huge debt and I think she should be allowed to sit the exams anyway.
Am I missing something?
we just did resits in the autumn.
She's been absent a fair bit due to her ill health and mine.
These exams are a repeat of her foundation degree. She's a disabled student but doesn't seem to be getting reasonable adjustments.
Any advice welcome.

We have also had a student with SM - she's working up from talking to one member of staff and is doing v well.
My student who used a text to talk app sounded really natural!
Honestly though if she isn't in the right place to attend enough to do the work then withdrawing and starting again sounds like a good way to start again.

We had further information this morning. If she withdraws on health grounds she gets her fees back.

If yoi mean literally that, are you / she paying her fees, rather than your DD taking the student fees loan?

Whichever way, if she does withdraw / take a break from her course, she should get documentary evidence that it is on health grounds. Eligibility for funding is based on years attended / started (with the formula 'Length of current course, plus one year, minus years of previous study'), not how the study was financed. So even if she is self-financing at the moment, a year started will be counted as a full year should she later decide / need to apply for student finance. However, if a year is abandoned due to 'compelling personal circumstances', that year will be disregarded.

The issue is she hasn't done enough work to pass.

Then her tutors are doing their very best for her by suggesting she takes a leave of absence.

As @JohnnyMcGrathSaysFuckOff and @worstofbothworlds say, if she is not ready for university and study at this level, this is the best way forwards.

Thank you. She is capable of this level of work but she has not been in enough.

She can go back to her original university too with financial assistance due to her previous results. I don't think she'd take that option but it's nice to be wanted.

Just an update for those that offered kind advice. Daughter has caught up and done her resits this week.
It turns out it wasn't her tutor that suggested withdrawal, it was her counselor. She had been very poorly and got overwhelmed.

However her older brother went through her results to date and discovered she had done really well in her first modules. He encouraged her to carry on and that is what she has done. A few more weeks and she has completed the year.

Here’s hoping it’s all gone well, OP

I hope the resit went well and that she is feeling better.
