Many schools have English and maths requirements but since you done well in English, talk to your school whenever you can ask whether or not they’ll allow you to do accounting

Firstly, I'd ring up your college in the morning to discuss whether you're still able to take accounting. Since you got a 7 in maths, they may be more likely to keep your course place. However, since English language is compulsory, you're going to have to re-take it at college. Overall, I suggest contacting your college as soon as possible to see what your options are.

I can’t be certain in your school but in my school you drop it after you pass in November so that should be the norm. ( Good luck !!)

It's be too late to start A levels in January when the resit results are released. Hopefully you can take a resit alongside your A levels
You will have to resit English, but your college might let you do A levels at the same time. This would depend on how good your results were overall, and how relevant they are to English. This would mean you have a GCSE English lesson in your timetable along with your A levels.

You'd still be doing your accounting course alongside the English re-take since it would be too late for them to make you start it after your resit. Good luck!

If I were in your position, I'd apply for Sixth Form/whatever course you'd like to do & request to resit English at the same time.

Can i ask you for some more help, I don’t understand how the resit exams work, is it work for only in sixth form? How about the college? Can i ask to resit the exam in the college as well? And is it that if you want to do A-level you need to pass grade 4 in english so can you please explain it to me and thank you if you were answering me 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🥺🥺

I'm pretty sure that colleges would allow you to resit English too, you'd just have to contact them via email or phone beforehand to make sure. Most employers, apprenticeships and university courses require a pass in GCSE Maths & English. What would you like to do at college, and what would you hope to do afterwards?

It's up to the sixth from you go to but you will probably be able to take those A levels while also re-sitting GCSE English Langauge.
