B, great with the short answers, but longer pieces are a struggle
😅 GCSE English Parent Reality Check… Just for fun!
Finish this sentence: “My teenager would rather __________ than revise English.” I’ll start… “My teenager would rather clean their room for the first time in 6 months than practise a Macbeth essay.” 😂 Parents… your turn 👇 (Students, you can defend yourselves in the comments 😆) P.S. Making English enjoyable is one of the biggest barriers. When students understand HOW to approach English, confidence usually follows.

@Natasha Lewis exact words, if there wasn't so much writing it would be ok!
Wisom Wednesday: A message for our NEW Year 11 students…
Firstly… enjoy the fact you are nearly the oldest students in the school 😆 BUT… here is something important: The students who feel confident walking into GCSE English exams next year usually aren’t the ones who suddenly start revising in April. They’re the ones who start building small habits early. The good news? You don’t need hours of revision right now. Start with: 📚 10 minutes learning key quotes ✍️ Practise one paragraph 📖 Read regularly 💡 Learn how to analyse, not just memorise Small steps now = less stress later. Parents of current Year 10s… What is your child’s biggest worry about GCSE English? A) Remembering quotes B) Writing essays C) Creative writing D) Knowing how to revise Comment A, B, C or D below 👇

as a parent of current Year 10 it is difficult to narrow it down to one of them, so would be a mixture of B, C and D
