A Brisbane high school may schedule upcoming individual exam times to accommodate some Year 12 students attending a Taylor Swift concert in Sydney next month, concerned parents say.
Eh, I think this is splitting hairs. “change exam times because of” and “plan exam times with consideration to” are near enough to equivalent that I can’t see any problem saying the former.
They are different though. Trying to avoid scheduling issues is a smart move. Booking in exams when you know students are going to miss them (whether they’re “allowed” to or not) isn’t going to help anyone.
But after the schedule has been set, when a best effort has been made to make it work for as many people as possible, “I’m going to a concert” won’t cut it.
