Yes, we still do he's 13 now, we did consider him going back into school for the engineering resources but 24hrs later we said "No Way"

I considered it for the science labs but life happened and it wasn't to be. We have now started on past papers and I'll get him to do the question you set tomorrow. Is your son doing some of his exams this year?

Hi he is doing physics this year a week tomorrow for the first paper

Best of luck We have maths Friday and then a full week of papers starting Monday, another couple after that and then Latin in June. We're in full on revision mode right now, past papers everywhere.....

Well, lots of needless worrying and stressing on my part!
A* in Maths A* RE A English lit A English language and a B for teaching himself Latin as I couldn't help and couldn't find a Latin teacher here. So in total 4 A*, 4 A, and 1 B - A levels next and the HUGE decision of whether to home school or school in the UK, I feel that stress coming on again..................

Wow, well done

Thanks
I'm so proud of him, not many 15 year olds sit and teach themselves Latin and he was only 4 marks off an A, I was really impressed

wow very impressive results and you get to feel proud twice as your the teacher and the parent

Dont envy your position though with the top marks of the last two lots of exams it would be very hard to hand over to mainsteam education

with everything going on I forgot it was results day until I caught sky news with the drop in top grades in the UK

Well done and congratulations.

Thanks all

Helio, fortunately, if he did enter sixth form, my cousin and her husband are head of departments at an excellent grammar school in Kent and so I would probably try and get him in there. I know what you mean though, he would be so far ahead and in his chosen subjects, he has probably already covered much of the A level syllabus. Difficult isn't it?

Hi Rural
I hope you got my email with congratulations to K and passed on the message,
if there is still time to meet up that would be great
take care
Trish

Hi, sent a rather cryptic reply Let me know if you didn't get it.

just checked, got it, reply sent

Thanks both for the wonderful night - the renegade runaways

PS: the Duchess is from Exminster, about 4 miles SE of Exeter. Let me know if you're ever out that way as she would enjoy meeting you and loves to hear abut Hungary.

Helio, just a note of caution for you in the future. Many A levels can not be taken by homeschooling due to the coursework criteria. They do not do international A levels, instead it's the good old IB which, even if suitable for home schooling, I wouldn't dare tackle it. There are "certain" subjects which can be taken as an external candidate at A Level and so perhaps best thinking ahead and looking at the options as one of my sons main subjects isn't available and so he now has to decide to drop it or return to school
