DS1 sat his 7+ this weekend. He's only going for one school as we really fell in love with it. He's at a state school so has seen the whole thing as a bit of an adventure and has enjoyed the process.
He does know, however, that it was a test and there is a possibility that he won't get in. I'm pretty sure we can be gentle with him if he doesn't get in and persuade him that staying where he is is just as good. TBH where he is is pretty good and if he doesn't pass then it clearly wasn't for him.
Wondering if anyone else is going through this process or has been through it. Some of the little boys (and their parents!) there yesterday seemed very worked up about the process so wondering how they'll cope if the news isn't want they wanted to hear.
