No you can't do both - the exams are on at the same time. Year 10 is very early to make a decision on the level - can your parents get involved?

I teach Maths - the only people who would be just doing Foundation topics in Year 10 would be those at grade 1 or 2.

That was how it worked when I taught in a comp - anyone working at 3 or above in Year 10 would be a group being taught some higher topics to see how they get on with them. Final entry tier decided after Year 11 mocks.
