Should I throw my year 11 exercise books away?

so as everyone knows GCSE's are cancelled this year so I was just wondering whether or not I should throw all my year 11 exercise books away. I would normally just hang onto them in case they're needed for whatever reason, but as I may be moving houses it would be easier to just throw them all away. What should I do?

All year 11 books are actually edible, they have a good taste as well so maybe eat them for lunch

Throw them away unless you really need the money.

You can try selling or giving out your notes/books.
Some people in my class gave an IGCSE textbook to a later cohort after we finished the exams last year, because the supplier needed like 4-5 weeks to get the textbooks to them.
My IAL Maths S1 textbook was also in the missing textbooks list and I also waited for a month to get it, so I really feel with them.

for most subjects i had a 2/3 a4 books and i included the loose stuff i'd done too - like past papers and coursework copies - so i put it in a thick a4 envelope and sent it 2nd class signed-for. think i also emailed the buyer any word docs i'd done as well

took photos of my handwriting and grades for the ebay listing

I binned my exercise books then sold my books to a family friend for a cheap price then gave the rest they didnt want to charity. You could keep the ones that contains gcse material for a levels? If you think its easier to bin them, totally go for it
