GCSEs : a parent's guide

GCSE exams present a challenge not only for students, but also for parents.

Watching your child study and prepare for GCSEs throughout Years 10 and 11 leads to a lot of questions, and the answers aren't always easy to find.

What are GCSEs and how are they taught and tested? How can I advise and support my child throughout their GCSEs, and help them use revision time and study leave effectively?

These are just some of the many questions raised by parents during the GCSE process.

The aim of this book is to deal with these and other issues, including what GCSE results mean and also addressing questions parents may have as their child faces post-16 decisions.

As a parent you'll find the answers and reassurance you're looking for inside this useful and informative guide.

It also contains practical advice for coping with important dates during the GCSE schedule - namely exam days and results day.

Chapters covering these topics and more offer preparation guidance to enable you to help and support your child through their GCSE experience.
