I know they haven't confronted the other students because I heard them ask another student about their attendance on the maths/English and then they moved on, also I asked other students.
They told me they think I am making it up to just get out of going in Fridays. That is not the case, many people who I know who have anxiety find it exhausting also. I have had days off due to my anxiety and left college mid lesson because of it which they know about.
I was ripped down by two staff members and made me feel like ****. They tried telling me that my anxiety isn't bad enough.
The two tutors said that if I couldn't go in on Friday's then I should fix a meeting with the woman who I've spoken too, which went to speak to her straight after and she is in talk about changing it. I am not refusing to do the unnecessary work, I am willing to compromise. The woman is trying to fix it so that I stay behind on Wednesdays and have a one to one lesson instead of coming in Fridays. I haven't been in the Friday just gone and I'm not at college next week and the week after we have a week off so when I do go back to college I will go back and see the woman and see if she's managed to change things.
Next year college is supposed to be 4 days a week with the maths/English intertwined with our main course.
