specialist maths school - better at english
21 Answers
my school has somehow been awarded the status of being a specialist maths school, yet in year 11 and i don't know about 9 and 10, we are better at english.
Evidence;
1) in maths, only the top set can do higher, everyone else does foundation.
2) even some of set two fail the foundation paper in maths and there were 4 people out of both set three classes who got a 'c' on the last maths paper.
3) in english the top two sets along with a few people in set three do the higher paper.
4) one of my friends who is in set three for english got a 'b' on her english language test
5) even some set 4 people can jsut about manage a 'c'
6) since i started the school, there hasn't been at time when there was a full team (the 5 that are needed for the 5 sets) of maths teachers, there is always at least one class, normaly set 1 or 5, who has substitue after substitute, non of our teachers have lasted more than three months.
7) Unless one of them is ill, since i've been there, there has always been 7, permanent, full-time english teachers at our school.
6 and 7 probably mean that 1-5 are true for all years.
so why on earth are we a specialist maths school and not something else, like english or the several other subjects we are better at.
