Filming 'empty wards' on her Instagram. Maybe the reason the car park isn't busy is because patients aren't allowed visitors? Jesus Christ. She was thick at school too🙄 When I picked Mrs Swanny up it was like a ghost town in there..very eerie Suprisingly Covid patients aren't walking around.

Site Supporter Winchester White Posted January 4, 2021 Site Supporter Share Posted January 4, 2021 9 year old lad is buzzing he doesn't have to go to school. Less so that the online work will be better organised. 15 year old is just wondering what the hell will happen with his grades, some mocks he did better than expected, others not as well as expected. He was hoping to work on those subjects he was weaker to get better results. Plus he gains so much more from being in school than at home. Prior to Covid he missed 3 months of school so playing catchup on catchup. Ah well, can't be helped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She struggles with remote learning but generally excels in exam conditions. She's now concerned that she's going to get shit marks from her remote learning work, now get the chance to shine on the exams and then not get into the college she wants to go to. She's mentally frail at the best of time and I'm worried she's now going to turn into a ticking time bomb. I would expect that her being on the spectrum would be taken into account when assessments are made. They are supposed to reflect how a child would perform in an exam after all.

Escobarp Posted January 4, 2021 Share Posted January 4, 2021 I had an attendance record at school of around 50%. I relied on exams to get my good grades. I would’ve been fucked in this scenario. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exams are indeed cancelled. Although the current January exams will go ahead, so that's me still in work for a couple of weeks. Quick question as obviously haven’t heard from the school yet, but, my lad in yr 13 was due to sit a sports exam this Weds, even though the general start back wasn’t until the week after , those sitting this exam were told come in tomorrow for prep and sit in on Weds as per schedule ( prior to this latest announcement tonight) now this has obviously caused confusion in the house as to whether this will still be the case . I am going to contact school in the morn but just wondering your thoughts on whether this will still happen ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I have heard tonight that some centres are pulling their January exams, some Heads/Principals are making that decision for their centres, you should receive confirmation early tomorrow with regards to how they are going ahead, if Kids have studied towards them, they may as well take them... imo.
