Does it end?!?!?!

Post by Mamma Mia »

My DD isn't finished with her exams yet and is one tough cookie, but what exams has everybody else done?... Is my daughter the only one that has done:
1. Owens
2. Haberdashers (girls)
3. STAHS
4. Queenswood
5. Henrietta Barnett
6. Loreto




WOW! :o

We are coming out of the indie sector into grammar (or not as the case may be!), and I am wondering why you chose so many schools? Is it that you could not decide which you preferred, or were you hedging your bets?

With that many different types of exam, did your DD become a bit blase by the time she got to the last one?

Sorry for all the questions - genuinely interested!

I think WOW is the right word! Are all these schools do-able for you? I mean, can you reasonably travel to them all each day? I only have 1 GS within travelable distance to us and I am envious of your choices.
Have you got a nice treat planned for you DS after all those tests? :D

DD only had to sit one exam as the results are shared with any of the Gloucestershire grammars you are interested in.

In some ways I think that GCSEs will be a walk in the park compared with the 11+ etc!

Think the northern end of Central Park, New York, at the dead of night.

Life threatening. :roll:

As for AS modules ... well, if Sally-Anne disappears very suddenly from the forum, you will know the reason. :evil:
