We reveal places your teen can get free stuff when they pick up their exam results.
With exam results due, you might want to surprise your teen to a treat to celebrate good results, or to reward the hard work they put in, even if it didn't pay off in the way they hoped. But with the school holidays in full swing, and costing parents upwards of £3,000 per child, your family budget might be stretched thin. Fortunately, these places are offering freebies to families over results days to allow you to celebrate or commiserate without breaking the bank.
Once you've done all you can to prepare - from digesting all the guidance in our parent's guide to A-level results and checking when A-level results day was and when GCSE results come out, it's time to take a break from the stress and enjoy some results day freebies.
