I've always achieved far better results in English than any of my other subjects and I was hoping that come year 11 I would be able to break away from the herd and study extension as a challenge. But (and a big one), my school has NEVER ever taught extension English in it's entire history and nobody except a close friend and I are willing to break the metaphorical ground.
Since our school is already stretching it's limits our Principal will not allow an extension class unless it has 6 students or more, and as I mentioned before it's just the two of us. I've been considering studying by correspondance, but I'm not quite sure whether taking an extension subject without a teacher is wise. I have a friend who goes to Francis Xavier in Newcastle who's doing extension so he would be able to offer some help.
Do you think it's worth the considerable risk?![Frown :( :(](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
