Results Day
When the day finally arrives, remember to stay calm. Your son or daughter will be able to check UCAS track in the morning to find out if they got into their first choice. They’ll still need to go into school to collect their results regardless – so remind them to take their ‘plan B’ list with them, and a mobile phone with full battery so they can go through Clearing if necessary.
You can hold your son or daughter’s place in the phone queue for them, but they’ll have to chat to the admissions team directly. They might be offered a place on the phone, or have to wait for a call back – so taking note of the people they speak to is important.
Top tip: If you can, why not take the day off work, in case you need to support them through the Clearing process – or to go out and celebrate!
