saw Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 And he is thrilled. This is the first job he has ever applied for in his life, and he got it. Back in November he decided that he was interested in a gap year, and would apply only to schools where he had a small chance of getting in. This was on the theory that he would apply only where he really wanted to attend, not to a range of schools that would ensure he had somewhere to attend. A risky idea, and we'll see how it plays out soon enough. This put a bit of pressure on finding a gap year plan, though. Then his school emailed all seniors about a gap-year position to work in a specialist junior school, wanting someone with DS's exact skills and background. He interviewed yesterday and was made the offer last night. Now, if he gets in anywhere, he'll ask for a deferral and hope that is permitted. In any event, he is set for next year. I'm really happy for him. 18 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
