Personally I don’t think Coppa is going to work if creators can just set for mixed audience. I’ve seen many channels with present opening and very child targeted material yet are not set for YT kids.
They need to start dishing out fines.

I don’t believe Youtube will start targeting channels that are deliberately not complying with Coppa, until the FTC clarify how video creators should comply with the law

Have linked an article regarding this below


The FTC surely can’t allow for things to stand as they are, otherwise anyone can make content that targets children entirely or partially, state that they are not deliberately doing so, set channel as ‘general’ and Youtube and vloggers like the Inghams get to carry on as they were

I've not watched the vlog, but learning support? 🤨 As a GCSE option? Never heard of anything like it before. Most private schools I've heard of have their students doing more GCSEs than those at state schools.

From what you've all described, it sounds like Sarah doesn't really give a tit about Isabelle's education, and only pays for it as a status symbol.
I have had that feeling all along when she started to keep Izzy and Esme off of school for holidays. Its bad enough if they are off of school due to ill health but just so they can go on holidays is just so ridiculous
 
I can't speak for Business, but Drama is far from a soft subject.
I did Theatre Studies as one of my A levels (and obviously drama at GCSE)
It is considered on a par with English. It’s a great deal of analysis and critical thinking of plays, scripts and books...and is far from soft I agree!

It wound me up no end that it was a “chat” for Isabelle (On camera, so staged) and Sarah took over and talked all about her!
And she did NOT do A level drama, it’s not even called that!! I don’t believe her for one second. Also the cinema...I wanted to shout at the screen 😡 piss off Sarah “it’s not our kind of film, Isla started to look at her phone” (tell her to put it away, you just spent a fortune going to the cinema, how spoilt is Isla?!) ..
Who cares what you think you uneducated thicko Sarah....WHAT ABOUT YOUR MIDDLE DAUGHTER (who has wanted to watch Cats since Christmas) WHAT ABOUT ESME?!! Sarah is the most selfish parent in the world. Gosh sorry had to shout a little there!! They just make me feel so cross! 😱

Haha benidorm isnt cheap enough I'm looking into 4 nights their for me and my partner. They will end up at butlins at a push but even that is price for a family that large
Just back on Christmas Eve from Benidorm and its not as cheap as people think. Your correct in saying it will be butlins and that would be pushing the boat out however they still have the caravan.
 
Not watched but scanned through because as a teacher myself im intrigued. The while but law’ you have to choose from 4 Blocks is a load of rubbish!!!! And as for the A* rubbish...why is that school still marking on an old system. Plus...is her written work strong enough to gain her the top grade Sarah thinks? Drama is no longer wholly practical so she’d have her work cut out. And as for the amount of school missed...what other kids would want to work with her in groups with the amount she misses.
I think the 4 blocks are how the school have timetabled them....so theoretically she can only take one subject in each block...plus maths, English and science...

I agree...why didn’t lazy take the older 2 and leave the younger 2 with Chris..it was not a movie aimed at children Islas age ..and why the hell do they keep taking jace to the movies...they are doing my head in...

Why has Isla even got a phone anyway. If thsy were only going to the cinema it should of been left at home as she only uses it for photography.
 
I'm kinda shocked at the options available at a private school for GCSE's. My daughter's school has extras like media studies, childcare, astronomy, music and a few more.
I did notice that too. It means that they were could do whatever combination of subjects offered (instead of, say, choosing between History or Geography like some schools do) but yeah, they were lacking a few standard subjects like Music, Computing, CDT or Home Economics. I'd have assumed private schools would have the facilities for those but it's possible they decided it wasn't worth the resources 😕
Either that or the choices were specific to ones Isabelle was already narrowed down?
 
We had a lot more to choose from back when I did myne. I was shocked to see Thier was no childcare or other tech subjects!
Poor issy does enough childcare at home without school

They knew it wasn’t their kind of film - they literally said so in the blog the day before. Must have had no content so needed to do something

I’d be so annoyed if a baby was in the cinema. Why can’t one adult go and one stay home with baby (you know, Chris? Who said he didn’t want to see the film)
 
Why is there any doubt in Sarah’s acting ability? She’s doing a pretty grand job of acting like she’s happy having a n husband, miserable kids and financial disarray.

But thats the whole point she’s NOT ! She’s only convincing the under 10s 😕 everyone else can see she’s lying through her teeth and over egging the pudding , so to speak ! So yes she would make a good pantomime dame maybe or a staring role in the remake of Johnny Briggs but as for actual serious acting ability she has none !
 
So, anybody got any juicy GCSE stories? What did you take? What are your kids taking? How many? How did you decide? What about your parents? We’re your sciences split? Is art worth it?
I'm getting Babbel adverts on Tattle now 😝
I hope Lazy appreciates all the extra GCSE information and guidance being given on here...

*sound of Lazy scritching notes with a fluffy unicorn pen in her Doris and Fred busy-mummy notebook*
 
How the duck does Isabelle get a A* in drama, she's as wooden as... a plank of wood

Because she’s at a school where her wannabe middle class parents pay through the nose ( via ifam daylight robbery ) for them to attend ! So the staff there have to encourage the parents to continue sending their little darlings in order to continue rake in the fees. There is no conceivable way of convincing them their kids are academically gifted so what better way to have them believe that their schooling system is working for them than to give them praise and good marks in areas where their marks are harder to disprove ! We have all seen for years now, in your words that she’s wooden AF ( bless her ) 😞 so there’s no other obvious explanation! 🙃

So then what's the point of COPPA? I think we have to wait and see or YT is going to get sued again.

it’s a total cop out imo , There is nothing wrong with acknowledging that your not able to take on all the GCSE options and say that you need more help in those subjects you are taking but call it what it is - FREE PERIODS - to catch up ! Trying to twist it into some kind of special form of an extra GCSE is an outrageous lie ! If the school is playing it that way they should be ashamed of themselves.

Sounds like they missed a trick with the vlog title. It sounds like the GCSE stuff was a rushed chat and the cinema debacle was Creepy and Lazy getting uppity. Creepy could've so easily made the cinema issue the vlog topic and titled it 'Just our opinion - controversial!' with a thumbnail of the two of them, arms-crossed, with faces like slapped arses. Everyone would've jumped on it thinking it was a rant about their critics 😂
Instead, he always plays the Isabelle card.
And we all know why.
