I need advice. I missed 4 years of secondary school and ended up getting G grades in my GCSEs (apart from a D/C grade in English)
i was suffering severe depression after losing my grandmother and also school phobia but no-one got me any help. i was also suffering neglect at home.
after I sat my GCSEs no-one really got me any help...and as a consequence i very stupidly sat at home until I was 18.
I am so scared.....because I don't even know how to cook, use a washing machine,use public transport etc.....
Can I fix this situation by using Home tuition? If so then how should I go about this? how would I know how to arrange the sujects/which subjects to take/how many hours? I am imagining that it would take me 5 years of home education to catch up (I'd be 23 by this time) before I could sit my GCSEs. How would this work?
Who would teach me though? my dad would probably be working for most of the day, my mum is terminally ill :'(
and my dad says that he couldn't afford to pay for pay for home tuition(could he not get a better job or we move into a smaller house?) also...what if my dad refused to let me have home tuition?
I have loooked at doing GCSEs at college...but i don't see how it could ever work..theyonly cover work from the last 2 years of school...and I missed years and years of work even from before then...so I wouldn't understand the content of the course
also...I wouldn't have a clue how to put a programme of GCSEs together/link the subjects....or how to learn stuff such as how to write a cv, use a bus, cook etc....
or have a clue about careers/jobs etc....
my only other option is an entry level course for complete dim-wits(sorry) I feel physically sick. even if I did this I most likely still wouldn't get any support at home.....
What on earth am i going to do? Would home education work? HELP!!!!!!
I live in England
