Hello everyone, here is a shiny new thread ready for DC’s results day tomorrow and a much needed hand hold for us nervous parents. 🥴🤪

Tomorrow is the culmination of an incredibly turbulent 2 year journey that our young people have had to navigate. Fraught with ups and downs. They have done us all proud!!

Here is a link to the previous thread: www.mumsnet.com/talk/secondary/4566030-current-year-11-2-more-weeks-of-exams?page=37&reply=119483572

I’m taking DS tomorrow. I’m hoping I won’t be told to wait in the car! If I see other parents accompanying their DC, then so will I!

Thanks for the new thread @Rollergirl11

DS seems fine and I'm okay too. Fingers crossed for a good nights sleep. Planning on taking DS to school for 8.45 as there is bound to be a queue for results at 9am. Not sure whether I'll wait in car or just drive home and let him ring me as he is going straight out with friends.

Good luck to all our DC for tomorrow.

My son is due his results tomorrow. Hes been quiet all week and hardly eaten today. He was going with his mates but has asked me to go with him. I'm more nervous for his than my own many years ago!

Hi waves

Can't believe it is actually tomorrow! I was feeling a bit stressed earlier but then a friend I hadn't seen for ages popped round for a couple of hours which provided a very welcome distraction. We have another friend coming over a bit later as well!

Prob won't find out until mid morning as school is open 10-12 to collect results but DS is not sure about going right at the start as he thinks there may be a queue!

Fingers crossed for everybody. Remember this is just a step on the journey and there is always an alternative route if things don't go as well as hoped. I think they have all done well just to survive the last couple of years!

I'm really worried about DS's results.
He's not academic at all but does very well in computing. He wants to do that at college.
The last few months I've realised he is probably on the spectrum and dyslexic, I think. I don't know how he got through his whole school years without it being picked up :( I feel really shite
I just really hope he gets enough to do computing at college

Can I join? I did start a thread in chat about this but was pointed this way. Dreading tomorrow
