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

Just out of interest - do the teachers know the raw scores? Just trying to plan contingency’s in my head to figure if it’s worth appealing. Oh now I sound like I doubt my dds abilities before we even know Sad

Feeling disappointed on behalf of the youngsters heading off to festivals in the rain, after the very long, dry and warm summer. Typical!

zighead · 25/08/2022 07:53

@LouisCatorze better than a heatwave though surely! Isn’t the forecast okay for the weekend?

SpaghettiSquash · 25/08/2022 07:54

DD has just left to get hers. She decided at the last minute she didn't want me to go with her. They can get them from 8am and then register for 6th form straight away.

Purple24 · 25/08/2022 07:55

AQA are updating their grade boundary page at 8am

NiceTwin · 25/08/2022 07:55

My dd can pick up at 8 but isn't leaving till 09:30 to get there for 10 😅

It is taking all my will power to not go and shake her awake 😳

Weather for Leeds looks OK, I think. Not sure about Reading.

Good morning...not enough sleep for me last night! Waking DS up in 5 minutes & we'll head up to school (5 minute walk) for 9am...

@FAQs I saw that some BTEC students don't have their results from last week, that really is appalling

zighead · 25/08/2022 08:00

That is so awful for the BTEC students. Hope none of them have lost their university places as a result.

summersolstice43 · 25/08/2022 08:01

I'm just getting ready to take my DD into school to get her results. I've got everything crossed for everyone awaiting their results. I'm so nervous.

MirandaWest · 25/08/2022 08:02

At school now - they are going into school. Various parents are standing around outside looking stressed.

MumofSpud · 25/08/2022 08:04

Morning all - 57 minutes left here - Good Luck all the 08:00ers !

The exams officer will know all the details and should be able to help

TeenDivided · 25/08/2022 08:06

70/160 needed to pass AQA English language...

Lightsabre · 25/08/2022 08:08

Edexcel Biology grade boundaries high.

QueenMabby · 25/08/2022 08:12

Am I the first to report?

All passed and he’s in for 6th form.
Maths - 9
Eng lit - 9
Biology - 8
Chem - 8
Physics -8
Eng lang - 8
Geog - 8
ICT - 8
History -6
Spanish - 4

Spanish a bit disappointing as he got a 6 in his mock but it’s still a pass and he hated every minute of it so all good!
Off into school for the official paper now.

Watapalava · 25/08/2022 08:13

Wow amazing results!

Great results, well done to your DS!
DD showing no signs of getting up and checking hers 😭

Sixteenpastten · 25/08/2022 08:18

Just waiting for DD to come down, we can go in between 8.30 and 9.30. I keep telling myself we’re not going for biopsy results, it’s only GCSEs and all re-doable if necessary!

MirandaWest · 25/08/2022 08:18

DD has not yet emerged - but she did say she would probably take ages to manage to get the courage to open the envelope….

MumofSpud · 25/08/2022 08:20

MirandaWest · 25/08/2022 08:18

@MumofSpud Congratulations!

Sadly these were NOT my DD's results but @QueenMabby !!
I would be in absolute shock if my DD performs as well!
I still have 41 minutes left to wait Grin
