Could anyone who has gone through the Reading Boys exam please advise me on the procedure of the day of the exam? Do the boys do the three papers consecutively or are there breaks in between and if so, how long? I would like to prep DS for the day in terms of timing etc as it is a long haul...thanks very much

DS2 sat last year, yes they have breaks between papers. You are requested to bring a snack and a drink. They get a chance to go outside and get some fresh air. Not sure of the exact timings and length of breaks. Three papers seems a lot but the boys seem to cope, even enjoy it.
