Has anyone’s child been able to defer their second year of college? (UK question ; college not uni)
I don’t know if this is the right board. My child is under the college Learning Support team but has been waiting for an Autism and ADHD diagnosis since they left secondary school so they’ll be finished education by the time this ever happens 🙄
Despite the first couple of months at the start attending in person at college, incidents happened to prevent that continuing and they’ve been remote learning their course at home due to severe social anxieties and other issues. They barely leave the house. But the second year of the course is practical and they need to attend in situ.
Tutor has advised potentially they could defer for a year, but they’re due to go back in 5 days and I’ve not had a reply about this yet. Understandably as they’re busy gearing up for the new term.
If you’ve had experience of this, can you recommend how you went about it, and also any online courses such as life skills your child found useful?
Princes Trust courses are not remote learning, Barclays Life Skills are underpinning for financial sector recruits, and the Alison courses along with many others aren’t remote learning.
Thankyou so much
