If it’s not explained, a kid doesn’t understand why he had to work hard to succeed. Parents and children need to cooperate for the success of the exam. Therefore, everything about the examination must be explained to the kid until the kid can accept it as part of his task.
2. What should be done by the kid to be successful?
Such as, kid have to study more often, and try harder to master the lesson. All of this must be communicated by the parent to the kid so that kid will have the self-discipline to achieve success.

Reassure your kid that you will always support him. If he needs, you'll be ready for him.
4. When kid is unsuccessful in the formal examination

Testing is so hard for kiddos. You're right - it's super important to walk them through the process.
