COUNTY NEWS: Girl cannot retake final year in funding fracas
A teenager who wants to retake her final year of school feels she has been '˜chucked on the scrap heap' after being told her place could not be funded.
Verity Pitts, 16, attended Davison High School in Selborne Road, Worthing where she failed all nine of her GCSEs due to illness despite being predicted to pass.
She wants to retake them at the school, which she said had ‘massively boosted her confidence’ – but because Davison does not have a sixth form Verity cannot be funded by West Sussex County Council.
