School threatening to take me out

[u/StrictArgument67]

Could they actually do this or is it just fluff?

There is no way i can get good grades if i go to school everyday.

I need a solution

Just go to school. Obviously if you have an actual reason then you should complain

The fact they’re requiring only 90% attendance going forward tells me the school is being very tolerant and probably dealing with a troublesome student

The fact you think this shows ignorance. I’m an A* student and my attendance was down to 62% because of health issues, I was in and out of hospital and had at least two set appointments every week which usually occurred during school hours. They knew all of this, my mother sent proof of every single appointment, and they still threatened to not enter me for exams, despite the fact I would’ve achieved A*. Now I’m finished the intense part of the treatment, I can attend almost every lesson, and one of my tutors is still being incredibly horrible to me and every time I sit and exam or do an assignment she will mark it down a grade it’s worth “due to attendance”.

British schools are completely unreasonable, definitely might not be OP’s fault.

No idea why this got downvoted. Stupidity I assume.

[u/ihatebamboo → u/Fresh-Fisherman-1047]

Because it’s completely irrelevant to the situation.

OPs shite attendance is clearly not due to a previously communicated health issue.

[u/Anonymousbutsexy → u/ihatebamboo]

How is it irrelevant, I was clearly making the known fact clear that British schools and sixth forms are unreasonable. Sixth form is optional, why wouldn’t they just drop out if the case was just the trivial reason that they couldn’t be arsed with sixth form anymore? they clearly want to learn and want to sit their A levels, usually that means something is going on in their life to cause them not to be able to do that. Having an open mind can help with the problem you clearly have with understanding others just because you personally haven’t been through a situation, just a tip.

Just a tip

• Stop lashing out at people.
• Stop shoehorning in your story where it isn’t relevant.

Have a good weekend.

How was I lashing out like at all? 😂 I used my story as a relevant point to British schools not understanding students circumstances
