If my teachers at school had actually looked at my grades holistically I often wonder if they would have spotted dyslexia…
It feels so obvious to me knowing what I know now!
There is so much I could tell you about my GCSE years! From the overwhelm and my dwindling mental heath as a result of undiagnosed dyslexia and adhd that led to an overdose that was a cry for help to the teaching I recieved!
Knowing what I know now the teachers who believed in me, or got how I learnt coupled with my motivation for the subject saw me attain much higher results and have a trusting relationship!
But for now… GCSE results feel huge at the time, but basically they are old news so quickly! That’s what I would tell my 16 year old self if I could go back in time!
