So, there we are at DS's parents evening, prior to choosing options. Had only just been made aware by DS that French was a compulsory option, and quite right too, IMO. DS not keen on Fr but tough. So we went to see the Fr teacher. She is v enthusiastic, explains in some deatil how DS is doing but without being specific about levels or expected grades. Then she says, his class are so good, all v motivated and doing v well that they intend to take GCSE a year early. 'that will leave more time in Y11 for other subjects'. We look suitably pleased, then I ask what his target grade is. 'oh, a D I should think or maybe even a C'
WTF???? Have 3 older DCs and from my observations C should be easily acheived by any moderately intelligent person with not too much effort. Comments please?
