Medical note to allow study leave?

hi all, my sixth form doesnt allow study leave aswell as this unfortunately half my teachers dont teach (just give a past paper and say get on with it). going to school to either not do any lessons all day or do lessons that are a waste of time is pointless to me. on top of that, school is a major trigger for my migraines which mean by the time i get home theres a 50% chance i will be completely unable to do my own independent revision which as you can assume by now is very stressful and annoying to deal with.

does anyone know if my gp would be able to write a note describing this to make my school allow me to have study leave? or is it better to just completely not attend without saying anything. i ask as i have an appointment coming up soon for other things.

Hello,
I am in a similar situation however, I had heartburn through year 12 so I am hopping I can use that to warn the teachers in my school about the clear dangers of stress for me.
Hope all goes well maybe you could speak to your head of 6th or the attendance officer in your school (if you have one)
