Oh, the delightful world of education, where fairness reigns supreme, and equality is the golden rule. How could we ever dare to suggest that granting an extension on a School-Assessed Coursework (SAC) might be a matter of fairness? After all, isn't it simply marvellous that every student must march to the same relentless drumbeat, regardless of their individual circumstances?
Yes, dear student, you're absolutely right. It would be utterly unjust to extend a deadline for a student who's had the misfortune of being struck down by an ailment. Because, as we all know, a virus respects the SAC schedule with impeccable punctuality. Who cares if you missed a week of classes and had to grapple with a stubborn fever, cough, and exhaustion? The SAC waits for no one!
May your resolve be as unshakeable as a squirrel's determination to hide acorns in an overflowing pantry.
