We will all forget these numbers and points in a few years and be more focused on GCSEs then A levels then universities and degrees....

It's important to remember that they will always remain our dear dcs and I'd like to take this opportunity to say that I'm proud of all of them...
I disagree slightly - they should really have been rewarded for their efforts after the exams have finished, not when the results come out.

We celebrated (effort) just after sitting the exam and we are now celebrating again.. even though ds didn't get enough points for his first choice...

In that case Hopefuldad7 celebrate again.

With ds1 it was difficult as he was also sitting some indie exams plus OSH - we didn't make the same mistake second time round.
