How much for a GCSE pass?
26 Answers
Halifax son has done his Maths GCSE this year (he's just finished Year 9) and is predicted to get a grade B.
I want to give him a reward for trying so hard after having to put up with years of bullying. I'm not sure how much though?! I want it to be a real treat but I'm thinking of the next few years and how many more GCSE passes I might need to pay out for!
What would you give?
TIA x

Invincible is spot on..........you have already rewarded him by bringing him up and educating him.
"Predicted a grade B?"....that does't mean that he will automatically get a grade B...does it?
I was never given ANYTHING for O-levels A levels or a degree and neither were my sons......good God.......MONEY for predicting a B in maths GCSE.
It wasn't just me.........my mates were never rewarded.
Seems to me easy money which is not a good start for the competitive will he will find himself in.
"Well done son".....seems sufficient.

sqad - you are a doctor - can't you get an operation for an Achilles Heel? Take a couple of Ibuprofen and think it through.
Halifaxmum - I know someone who got a Porsche after passing his Highers - that was in the 80s and the car cost about £30k. However sometimes less is more. What about a gift like - "Be a Zoo-keeper for a day"?
I don't think my parents knew that we sat exams.
