A strict dad has revealed he will be forcing his son to revise for his GCSE exams on Christmas Day - and he is not alone. Matt Privet, 38, from Devon, argues that while it might seem harsh to other parents, it's his responsibility to make sure his 14-year-old is as prepared as he can be for achieving good grades in the New Year.
Matt, who wished not to be pictured, told the Mirror that his teenager will be set to work after opening presents on Christmas Day morning. They've also scheduled an hour each day for revision over the festive holiday.
But his son won't be sent to his bedroom alone to get on with it and instead, it will be a family affair. "I will be helping my son revise over the Christmas period," Matt, a building surveyor, said.
