I'm 16 years old and currently studying for my GCSEs at school. I'm a bright student and I've got good grades (all A* - C). The only problem is my attendance which is just 74%, no where near what it should be (I'm thinking somewhere high up in the 90% range?). Sometimes I like going to school other times it bores the living c**p out of me. Funny thing is I'd like to get into my schools sixth form because my friends are here, I get along with my teachers and it provides the course I'd like to study. Do you think it's too late to improve my attendance so they'll let me in? Or have I not got a hope in hell? Baring in mind I leave in May. Please pleeeeaseee help me people, thanks!You have plenty of time to improve your attendance.
Just go everyday or something,you'll be fine.I'm sure that the Taxpayer would like to see 100% attendance.Yeah, just go daily. I'm in 5th yr and my attendance is sh*te =/
I might fail..
Don't end up like me =]
Gd luck on getting better attendance (yn) xno it's not too late, but you CAN'T miss any more days off!
go to school EVERY day from now on, on time!
hope this helps !
Emma (:Just get out of bed and go to school - the answer to your question is very obvious and it is up to you to make the effort. If you can't go to school how will you manage to go to your work every day. A good work ethic begins when you are young and lasts a whole life through. No employer wants someone who only goes into work when they feel like it. Go on - you can do it if you try!I too had an extremely low attendance in year 11 (16yrs old) mine was due to depression however and it took a huge impact on my grades the most important thing is to just push yourself a lil extra and know that in the end you will have great grades and be further to the success in the career you want.
i managed to secure a place within my school's 6th form it's hard but if you got the dedication to get to the places you wanna go, then you can do it.
You have plenty of time. From now on, just only stay home from school when you are sick.you're only 16...attend your classes!! try to find out how they give you grades on attendance and then compute the results if you attended them all until may...
boredom in your school isn't a very big problem... you can let your mind wander...but do it inside a classroom...
at least you're lucky...you have the luxury of not attending school when you feel it... unlike sum people like me who enter schools that make attendance mandatory...and unexplained absences are grounds for expulsion..
90% is dream at this point.... stop having time off and it should improve
