Y11 DS has been ill, hospital admission, missed 2 1/2 weeks of school (including a week of mocks) and is now back at school part-time. His illness is likely to be ongoing. I kept the school informed, especially once we had a diagnosis. The only contact I had from the school was in reply to my emails.
Today DS has told me that he has a performance exam (Drama GCSE) on Thursday, which accounts for 20% of his mark. On Friday his teacher told him to focus on his duologue, as that affects his partner, and not worry about his monologue.
Needless to say, DS is worried. Although he had known his pieces almost by heart, he has completely forgotten them and has to learn them from scratch again, while trying to catch up on missed work.
AIBU to be annoyed that the school have not contacted me about this exam? I did not know about it, as it is not listed in the exam timetable posted online.
Surely, in order for the school to apply for special circumstances for DS, they need to have the relevant info from me, doctor's note, etc?
