And the letter announcing "study leave" lasting for weeks on end, usually segueing perfectly with the end of the Easter holiday and necessitating a permanent parental presence to ensure focus not Facebook. :twisted:

In some ways I think that GCSEs will be a walk in the park compared with the 11+ etc!
No... :evil: :mrgreen:

... then there are AS levels, A levels, EPQs....... :lol:
Then there is the UCAS process and of course working towards their degree, getting a job..... etc. :?

I'm afraid the answer to your question is....... NO! :lol:

WOW! :o
DS applied to 8 including 2 grammar schools :oops: He had his final exam yesterday and will be occupied by interviews next week.

It was not because we could not make up our mind. I know at least which school I like and DS always does not give any fuss about any school (there was one school that we attended the open day which he said he liked - the reason was they provided decent hot food in open day). We wanted to play safe by applying to schools in different ranking academically as a contingent back up.

DS has worked very hard over the past 4 years and we have now finally reached the stage that DS has no more daily training to do. He deserves a lot of praises and we promised him a holiday after we have made our decision on choice of school.

I am sure other DC who went through similar training should deserve something good out of it.

She is very smart and can cope... sort of. She said "Don't ever let me do this again!" I really feel sorry for her! :x But she really strong about her answers. She hasn't failed one yet (I hope!) We've had a few come throw the door and by email.

Has anyone else found out their results for those schools? My girl doesnt care about any of them apart from Queenswood and we are hoping to get a bursary!
