Passing GCSE present

Flyonthewall

If she likes art and drawing you could buy her a nice looking art set. Quality pencils, crayons, paper.

Does she like viewing art? Maybe a trip to an art gallery?

Make up?

MAC voucher perhaps, or a lipstick. My daughter has got an eye on the new urban decay naked eye palette.

Perhaps one of these day/afternoon classes in art where you are taught certain techniques? You could get her a voucher for one and she could attend when she is free. Have a google for ones that run in your local area.

My niece was hoping for a car - not old enough to drive, but apparently that is besides the point. There has been a serious amount of eyelash fluttering going on at grandad, after mum and dad declined her suggestion.
So on that basis, nothing sensible. Is she a girly girl?

Money. Simples.

Does she have a pandora charm bracelet or anything? Maybe a charm, or if she doesn't have one already, you could get the bracelet and a charm, depends on your budget.

System

If she is 'arty', she may like something from this Etsy shop?
They have a sale on their stained glass jewellery at the moment.

I was about to suggest a pandora bracelet. I got one for my daughter when she passed her gcse's. You can even get an exam charm for them with an owl and a book on it (I got that one). It also makes birthdays and Xmas a bit easier as you can add to her charms.

It makes shopping so easy in future! my sister has one and does ask for charms for xmas/birthday. The last ones I got her were a little music note as she loves music and a little dog in a doghouse, things that relate to her and her personality.
Still plenty of space for new charms so that's the next few birthdays sorted!

I would avoid the book token. Having worked so hard for the exams, if it were me I'd like something away from books. A Level text books/set texts/revision guides are often more competitively priced online than in book stores anyway.

The Pandora bracelet sounds a nice idea. How much do you want to spend? Of course that will be a cheaper option if she already has the bracelet to put the exam charm onto.

Small note of caution on that, though. Personally, though I like the idea, I wouldn't have wanted a charm to remind me of my GCSE results (but would have loved it when it came to my A Level results.) Family were happy with my GCSE's and it was considered very good but I was very disappointed with two subjects. Do you know if your niece got everything she was hoping for in her results? In my case I'd have been happier with just a general present, money or gift tokens. There is always the LoveToShop voucher which can be spent in quite a few places if you're not sure what/where she'd like.
