Just had a letter regarding my Year 8 DS, outlining the details re subject choices to achieve the BAC qualification.
I know absolutely nothing about it, and having touched on a couple of BAC threads on MN am not interested in the League Tables element, but want to know
- What is the difference btw GSCEs and the BAC?
- Is the BAC widely recognised amongst universities and employers as a worthwhile qualification?
- Why is a foreign language a compulsory part of it?
- Is achieving the BAC qualification the same as GCSE re a mixture of course and exam work?
Feel very
The school is holding a "Market Place" evening in a few weeks time. Feel thick about this too, is it where the subject teachers try and sell/big up their subjects?!
