I genuinely don't know what parents are doing for this - i don't get to meet up with other parents so would appreciate any pointers??

BTW anyone else nervous??

Well, I did a something after the exams were taken as a reward for the hard work. DD may or may not get her predicted or desired grades, but she worked her socks off.

We will be going out for a Chinese tomorrow regardless.

The 'right' amount is whatever feels right for you, that you can afford, and that is sustainable for younger siblings too.

But not right imo to reward a lazy bright child who gets As more than a hard working not so academic child who gets Cs.
