Just been told daughter will not be able to join JESS Arabian ranches because result of assessment was not good enough! Wish they had told us earlier that there was a chance she would not get in, instead of telling us she would be in for sure, bad enough they only had her in for test last Wednesday and we have had to wait till today to hear bad news!!!:(

Having same problem with our son, had it with all the others too! Just a age thing, like others said put her in a less expensive school as long as she does not want to do the work. Diffucult because they are not easy to talk to at this age, think they know everything and are grown up even if they do not act it!!

If this was a really strict muslim country there would be no alcohol to consume which seems to be a factor in almost all of the murder, rape, indecents acts and so on that are happening here more and more( or so it seems)!

nothing to do with being prudish just do not know why some women have to have it all on show! Mind you must of them are nothing to look at so guess only way they get men to look at them!

was just thinking about this myself after seeing some sights in the malls, where there is meant to be a dress code! Some women have no respect for themselves let alone rules (which here seem to be made to be broken)

Think it is just age thing up to two years ago was perfect student but then got into wrong company and been going downhill since. The school has offfered him pleaty of help and I have talked to him many times but he just not interested just tells me not to worry he can sort himself out and he does not like being told what to do! School said about him doing american system because they thought it would suit him better and a bit easier, but then I am sure they still need good reports from previoius school and none would be willing to take him this late in year.

Gave us three choices but by the way they were acting and reading between lines would prefer we take him out. 1 We change school 2 He redoes year 11 3 He tries to recover work in next 3 months so he can move to year 12 (which they said would be almost impossible for him to do) So do not know what to do not going be very happy weekend!!
