After the exam

Post by Stressed?Moi? »

Just wondering what everyone else is doing post-exam on Saturday? I think we'll go our for a bite to eat and if the weather's good, a trip to the park. We are giving her a bit of pocket money to spend on riding when she comes out of the exam to say well done for all her efforts - regardless of whether she passes or not.

A meal after the exam is all my two got. We did try to make the rest of the weekend as chilled-out as possible.

I remember getting a dictionary as a present for passing my 11+ some years ago, which my parents promptly borrowed to use for their evening scrabble competitions.

There again, I heard parents say they were promising their child an iPad for getting all level 5's in his SATs. I was kind of horrified - for a start, SATs are not particularly important for the child / parent, just for the school. Who knows what they were promising him if he passed his 11+?
