Thank you. I really hope so too. School have not rung me back which takes the @#%@ but not sure what else i can do. The adjudicator apparently tried to get them to stop

No exams for DD today or Monday, but 6 in total across tues, wed, thurs. DD has also been ill all week, so trying to get a bit of rest as well as revising over the weekend.

I haven't seen DD yet as she goes straight to dancing from school and I know better than to ask her anything in a text! She found the Chemistry yesterday quite difficult because there was a lot of Maths on it but it was better than Biology and at least she attempted all the questions. She was quite confident about French writing so I just hope it went well. She finishes on the 14th too.

My dd’s teacher thought it a good idea to go through their chemistry exam paper yesterday, that they had done the day before. She was really upset because of his answers she is now worried she hasn’t done very well . I mean what to**er would do that?
It’s hard enough and stressful enough without some numpty adding to the pressure.
I have tried to tell her to put it aside, you can’t change it and concentrate on the next ones.
My daughter also finishes on the 14th, her last day of school too. Then a couple of weeks later does NCS for 4 weeks.

That’s awful for your daughters teacher to do that, it doesn’t help as they can’t change it

My daughter has been on The Student Room and people are putting mark schemes on there, I told her not to look, why worry even more?

My daughter is also going to NCS in the summer

Oh for goodness sake, I’m a teacher and trying to be professional but the actions of some other teachers make it so difficult at times, why on earth would he do that?

Mine are also doing NCS, going to France for the first week!

Poor DS has been in bed with a stomach bug and temperature but insisted on dragging himself in for his P.E. exam today. He looked dreadful. School have said they will apply for special consideration and I hope it does something as he’s worked really hard for these exams and this is just the worst time to be ill,

[JoJo88]

We were talking about that today - what happens if you can’t make it in due to illness?

Oh how horrible for him. There must be some consideration for these sorts of things. Hope he feels better soon ☹️
