Falling behind at A level - when is it too late to catch-up?

[WhatsitallaboutAlfie1]

For various reasons, including friendship issues, absenteeism, some MH issues (depression/anxiety) and Covid etc, our dd has really fallen behind at A level. Her attendance rate is around 65%. She is in lower sixth. We are trying to 'sort' the issues with school, GP, CAMHS (hopeless) etc but at what point do you think it becomes untenable to sit A levels? We might be able to secure a tutor etc (although dd would have to really engage with that in her spare time), and endless propping up seems a little counterproductive, but just wondered if others had been in this situation and if they had really managed to pull things round? When is late too late?

I'd be tempted to:

• reduced timetable now, just 1 or 2 subjects. Good to keep busy. Unless the depression/friendship issues make this worse
• aim to spend next 6 months on recovery you can't rush these thing
• restart in state in september (and use money to be saved from y13 fees on private psychiatrist, CBT or whatever)
