What's the point? So, the kids can have an extra month of stress and a shitty Christmas? Unbelievable.

Either do it in November or scrap it. This adds NO value.

I think it’s the right decision tbh. (I have no skin in the game BTW- none of mine are doing them.) it wouldn’t be fair to sit them in November when they’ve missed so much school but it’s not the time to have a knee jerk decision to scrap them. That’s a different discussion and shouldn’t be based on this years extraordinary circumstances.
