A Levels - Good luck!

Topics

skive

As it's now Wednesday I'd like to wish all FMs awaiting their results or FMs with kids awaiting their results the very best and hope it all works out for them tomorrow.

I was out shopping today and bumped into one of my students who was very panicky even though he's a straight A kid. So I'm spreading my best 'don't worry, you'll be fine' vibe here too!

P.S. An extra special good luck to all my year 13s who worked really hard this year and were such a great bunch, that old cliché - a real joy to teach.

Good luck to your students, too, skive.

People often forget, or don't realise, that we teachers feel our students' anxiety, or that we feel rewarded when they do well and feel their pain if they don't do so well.

Bless her, it's an awful wait for kids. She must be bright as a button tho if she's just done an AS in year 11.

Sounds to me like she'll be just fine.

And that old adage, so long as you did your best is sooooo true!

for bitty's daughter.

Bitty

Ta Skive... she did AS Engineering. Opened alot of doors for her... led to her getting her (provisional on GCSE grades) full boarding scholarship at a private boys school to do A level physics & maths.

She don't half set herself high targets though.

Absolutely Baz, one year I went to Australia to visit my brother in August and had to ring the school to make sure everyone had got what they needed otherwise I wouldn't have slept!

Even the kids who've been a right pain in the aris we wouldn't wish on them disappointment contrary to what they might think!

Oh the difference between a b and a d is so embarrassing!

Wow sounds like you got a clever one there ditty........make sure she signs the contract that says she will keep you in the style to which you'd like to become accustomed when she's earning a fortune.

ALready done that!!! I have backed the daughter for my retirement package... told her I want to be in a nice retirement village in Florida.

Hubby has backed the boy.... so I reckon its gonna be meals on wheels for him!

(not cos the boy won't acheive...but he'll be way too tight to spend it on hubbys old age)

You know my son

My lad gets his results tomorrow, and I am so 'churned up' for him. He works so hard and is so bloody clever, but same as your friend he freezes in exams.

Good luck to everyone waiting on their results.

Just remember it's not the end of the world if the results are not as good as hoped.
There are always retakes and clearing - but fingers crossed that no one needs them

My daughters GCSE results will be crap cos she didn't take them seriously at all (she said she fell asleep in geography)but she will be able to progress to 6th form cos she already has the equivalent of 4A's in the bag through her Coursework based subject having gained a distinction.
