To be fair tho, the initial head of sixth form spent the majority of the year off school ill with pneumonia and has now retired, the other member of sixth form of staff was ill over the period letters were sent out.
I t was just left to the deputy head of the high school who is taking on the new position of a sixth form head.
I do know him very well and so does my dad, perhaps very embarrassing on his part. He was very apologetic to be honest!
The letter that was sent out was very generic:
Dear student
Progression may not be straight forward either due to results or the number of classes you have.
There are four main options:
Re evaluate your position at 6th form
retake year 12
change subjects
Pick up more a level subject to fill the time table
You can imagine my horror to opening this generic letter with no clue as to what I may have done wrong.
