Then surely they should only keep the students who still have coursework to complete? My sons school have strict deadlines for coursework and they were weeks ago.
Sounds totally ridiculous to keep them for the sake of it. I’ve never heard that before. Thankfully my sons school have common sense and will be releasing them into the wild after exams finish 🤣🤣

Don't disagree at all. Just posting what the schools can and can't do based on the last Friday in June date.
Can see no point in keeping them longer unless they have work to complete, but can if they want. Don't know of any non private school that does keep all students beyond that date. Edited at 06:56 PM. |

On a side note my sons headmaster was in the news the other week for sending letters out telling the kids that if they want nice cars and holidays etc they need to work hard to do well in their exams.
I feel a bit sorry for him as he's been hauled over the coals but it's the same thing I've been telling the boys from then being yay high. I always said our nice holidays to Orlando etc are because I've worked hard so if they want to go when they are older they will need to as well .. what do you guys think ?

I have always told my boys this. They have nice things because mum and dad work hard. If they want nice things they have to too. Some people will take offence though.

My daughter is actually attending her new sixth form on the 21st June so if they haven't released her then she won't be going into school but to college instead.
I'm hoping they are just winding them up but they've not released the leavers hoodies, constantly 'blackmailing' in my opinion that if they don't do this or attend that they can't go to prom. My daughter said all they seem to be going on about is if they keep them in school then they won't go out drinking, in leavers hoodies ? , to celebrate leaving, errr yeah they will, on Friday night, when exams are finished. Glad my daughter won't. Originally they were leaving Friday lunchtime but no-one knows what is happening now. I'll just be glad when her exams are over and she can relax. |

Dd can leave after her last exam (Friday) but won’t get her prom ticket until she has her form signed to say she has handed in her books, I think that is fair as lost books must cost the school money that they really haven’t got to lose. I can’t believe the teachers would want the yr 11s in the school after the exams as they will just be a distraction.
With regards the Headmaster’s letter I’m not sure that is the message I would want sent out to everyone. There are many people who work and have worked extremely hard but can’t afford nice things, those families won’t feel great getting a letter like that and it’s also materialistic...although when I’ve been nagging the kids I’ve said similar it’s really hard trying to find something to motivate them

Well my daughter just text and said literallly nothing came up on the maths paper that she had revised (as in the topics that were not on paper 1 and 2) She was predicated 5/6 and she feels that she has now not passed If she hasn’t then they will not let her into sixth form so not quite sure what she will be doing in September She tries so hard as well, I could cry Edie |
