Watch out this mistake that happened to me from year 6 and year 9 onwards!

Hi Everyone so I was in Year 9 now this is mostly or sometimes regardless of if you have a EHCP or not which is a Education Health Care Plan feel free to search it up via Google.

Anyways I attend a primary school a normal mainstream one i loved it there. Anyways when Year 6 ended my school gave two choices either a normal one or some type of Specialist one I went for the normal academy they soon didn't have a place so I didn't know that the second option ruined my life since I didn't really have anyone like a careers adviser to guide me in my life.

My Primary school putted me in a special school. 😭 I kept getting told by the staff there that I will do my GCSES as and it was too early after that throughout Year 10 I had this hope for me to do GCSES they kept making excuses.

So in Year 11 long story short I found out I had a EHCP under two different names but the same last name either way I thought that I'm not doing this stuff anymore so I now attend a mainstream college where I finally do GCSES.


I never had that option of what GCSES subjects I wanted to do none of that because my face was said to have some EHCP which I tried to remove when I was at a special school but I couldn't because I was considered as ' under 18 ' or whatever.

I basically didn't have those years that I was meant to have doing GCSES as the same year and preparing in mainstream as everyone else all because I either had a EHCP ( which I can't currently remove because I'll turn 18 soon and may lack the qualifications) or it's because my primary school never really did they job properly or cared about me I don't know i won't go into detail about the Government because they target and have control of our individual lives.

However I'm allowed to have opinion this is my opinion it affects a person's mental health and their personal life as well as academic school or educational life and in my opinion it's all because of the Government I don't have any freinds contact details that are normal ( mainstream ).


Just stating my opinion I must've not been the only one who was wrongfully put or even rightfully put because I didn't have the knowledge of what something meant right?

If anyone can relate or something similar about missing years of GCSES or 11 plus that they weren't supposed to feel to reply to this post!
