This is a thread for supporting all young people post GCSEs 2020, regardless of their educational setting. It is respectfully requested that all are supportive and helpful to each other. If you want to start a debate, e.g state vs private, please don't within this thread. Please also be sensitive when responding to threads about grades. It's all relative!

Some of us have been here since first thread back in yr10, some will be new. Everyone has been friendly and helpful in the past. Everyone is welcome. It is hoped this will continue.

Our DS/DD may continue down various pathways ( employment, apprenticeships, higher ed) We have decided for anyone interested they will find a thread within the Further Ed board.

Possibly a move to Parent of Adult Children Board in future? Post Results?

Wonderful news also ... excellent ...long may this continue...

Wonderful news! Well done to both. Let’s hope this is the start of an avalanche of brilliant results.

Congratulations to the IBers - fantastic news!
(HoneyMobster , are you new to the thread, or a name change from previous threads? I think I must have missed you!)

@Horace123 @HoneyMobster Fabulous news! Well done to your Dc. I think this year’s cohort deserve extra praise with all they have had to put up with.

@Alsoplayspiccolo - name change. I am an old timer 😉

Fantastic news @Horace123 and @HoneyMobster! Congratulations to your DC

Dragging myself up from my covid sickbed to say a hearty congratulations to @HoneyMobster and @Horace123 wonderful oxford news! Fantastic I am SO pleased!
now if someone could arrange for Johnson to fuck off before I have to go back to sleep again, that would be lovely 😁

Thank you all so much for the good wishes - we have had a lovely evening and DS off to see friends tonight.

@Delphigirl sorry you aren’t well - hopefully you’ll make a speedy recovery.

I’m going to spend the evening researching what happens to all the legislation currently making it’s way through Parliament because for stuff in committee stage I don’t think there are enough ministers left to pass anything. I should probably know this and no doubt covered it in law school but didn’t really foresee such an implosion … Soon Larry the cat will be the only one left.

So the committees are not quorate? Can Larry the Cat undertake Chair's Action? 🐈

Surely we are at that bit in The Crown when the Queen tells the PM to bugger orf?

Well done @Horace123 and @HoneyMobster , that is fantastic news. Let’s hope we are a lucky thread.
we have looked at clearing, to make sure we are fully ready if DS doesn’t get his grades as DS goes on holiday not long after results we don’t have a lot of time to sort him out.

@Horace123 and @HoneyMobster Wow fabulous news! 🍾

One thing with all the current political shenanigans- thankfully it didn’t happen before the A Levels or Ds would have had to rewrite all his Politics essays

Amazing for the IBs ! Must be great to now have so much time before uni to get sorted.

Oh what great news @Horace123 and @HoneyMobster : huge congrats!

Thrilled for the IBers. At least 2 of us can now enjoy the summer. It’s my birthday today, and I love apolitical crisis, it’s been heaven.

Happy birthday @Zebracat !

Happy birthday @Zebracat 🎂

Happy birthday to @Zebracat!

And well done to @Horace123 and @HoneyMobster’s DC!!

Enjoy the resignations and sackings over a chilled glass of bubbly @Zebracat : I’ve got R4 on and they are all having such a lovely time!

Haha @Zebracat is this all caused by you hoping for a nice political crisis when you blew out the candles on your cake?! Happy birthday, enjoy the show!

Hehe Zebra, the things that float our boat! Happy birthday 🎈 🪱 (couldn’t find a. Boris emoji but found a Gove one instead ;)



Congratulations to @HoneyMobster and @Horace123 DC off to Oxford- hope they are now very relieved!
@Horace123 I tried to attach a meme about Larry the cat leaving no 10 but it didn't work - I think he left yesterday morning!

Congratulations to the IBers! Wonderful news. 🍾

And also Boris is going - hoo-bloody-rah!

happy birthday @Zebracat
