Does everybody's DC need to sit exams in Full Uniform like mine? IMHO I think it's a bit mean, my DS would love to just wear his comfortable Chino's and a T-Shirt Confused

Yes I guess your right really, I am just thnking because when I sat my exams many moons ago in Ireland it was standard to wear our own clothes. True he would probably want more clothes and I already got stung for £300 "Summer Wardrobe" a few weeks ago :)

Ds wears uniform and i have no problem with that. Agree with Hellsbells, the girls (and some of the boys!) would be worrying more about how they looked and less about the exams. Plenty of time for own clothes when the exams are over.

Hi. I think it is pretty standard at most schools - it is at ours. I'm glad it is otherwise DD would be stressed sorting out what clothes are trendy and cool! ....even for an exam...
