Year 11 - 2024/2025: The Results Day Thread

[QueenMabby]

New thread for results day. Deep breaths. We can do this!

Good luck from me too.

Oh poor kid. I don't remember so much pressure either. I think it's because the previous Govt were so hot on judging schools on exams performance that it inevitably filtered down to the kids.

I've been awake since 3, couldn't sleep and feel on edge. DS seems ok. Good luck to all.

Good luck everyone.

They have just been allowed in!!!!!! Big bro gone in with him!!

Praying for a clear herd.

Your DD sounds very similar to DS. Really felt he had put everything into English lit but will be annoyed if he gets a 3 for art because he “could have done nothing and the outcome would be the same” 😂 I did say he had done next to nothing as it was so he couldn’t complain too much.

Good luck everyone- dd has banned me from school- her brother is taking her in.

2 years ago it was his turn. He got some cracking results but the one we were most proud of was a 5 in English Language and a 3 in Lit. He'd never previously got higher than a 3 in lang and a U in Lit.

The screams have started!!!! 🥳🥳🥳🥳

Others I mean!!!!!!

@whojamaflip
Really hope you get clear testing x

You had me worried there for a second!
😊😀

Right!
Off to have a shower...
See you all on the other side!
💕🍀

Mine are still asleep too. I think I'll wait till 8.15 to wake them. We can't go before 9am.

Joining the thread! About to head into school with DS1 to get his results. 11 subjects, he felt all went ok, says he isn't bothered. Predicted 5-9s & got that in mocks. Only needs 4x4s to get into college to study football - although I wish he was staying for 6th form & doing IB or A Levels!

He has just demoted me so I'm not allowed to drop him at school, just the high street & he's walking in with a friend instead. Gutted but it's his choice & lots are doing similar.

Grade Boundaries for Edexcel here: Grade Boundaries - June 2025 - GCSE (9-1)

For those who care, 144 needed to pass Foundation tier maths.

Just received an email with grade boundaries.. but doesn't say which exam boards. But means they've been teleased

AQA Grade boundaries: GCSE - Grade boundaries June 2025

Good luck to everyone today.
My daughter's just collected hers - disappointed she didn't get a 9 in Maths ad she's doing Further Maths so may have to take extension classes, but otherwise happy 🙏🏾.

Aqa maths F 160 for a 4
188 for a 5

Congrats to your dd @Dweetfidilove

If I'm reading them correctly the boundaries seem lower than the last couple of years...?

I feel sick with nerves now. I've left DS walking to school so it won't be long here. I offered to go with him and he looked at me like I was mad and DD laughed in my face so that's me banned from school. Luckily I can get away from work if needed for support.
Good luck 🍀 everyone to get through this day.

Very happy son and proud mum.

Predicted between 6 - 9 across all subjects. At last parents evening a few teachers sat opposite us and told my DS that his grades were ok, but did he want to look back and know he could’ve tried harder and feel disappointed in himself. That kick up the arse changed his attitude and he just received news of 5 GCSE’s at an 8, and the other 5 at a 9.

That fills me with hope for maths!

Congrats @AutumnOffGrid
