Exams

The external exam boards have designated Wednesday 26 June 2019 as a ‘contingency day’ for examinations, this is part of their standard contingency planning for exams.  We must therefore remind candidates and their  parents/carers that they must remain available until Wednesday 26 June 2019 should an awarding body need to invoke its contingency plan.

GCSE and A Level Results Day Information

GCE A LEVEL RESULTS DAY—THURSDAY 15 AUGUST 2019

• Year 13—Results available from 8.30am in the VI form centre.

GCSE RESULTS DAY—THURSDAY 22 AUGUST 2019

• Year 11 – Results available from 8.30am in the VI form centre.

Please remember; if students are unable to come into school to get their results in person at the above time, a self-addressed envelope with the correct postage stamp must be supplied for the results to be sent out by post.  Collection by a third party, including parents, can also be arranged but we require a letter of authorisation signed by the student naming the person nominated to pick up the results. (Form available on the website.) Please note that we are not able to provide the results to anyone over the phone or by email. We advise all students to collect their results in person in case they require advice

Collection of Examination Certificates 

If you have not collected your examination certificates from a past examination period, you may arrange to collect these from the school with one day’s prior warning to the Examinations Officer (examination results are in safe storage and are not easily accessible at short notice). We regret that examination certificates cannot be sent by post. We do not take, or keep, copies of examination certificates, therefore if you have already collected your results and have lost your original certificates, you will need to contact the examination boards involved. This usually costs around £40.00 per certificate, so it’s a good idea to keep them in a very safe place once you have collected them!

GCE/GCSE examination certificates will be available for collection from Monday 07 January 2019 until Friday 18 January 2019 8.00am – 3.30pm, certificates not collected during this period of time will be available on request with 24 hours’ notice prior to collection.

Please be aware school will be closed for the collection of certificates from 12.00 Friday 21 December until Monday 07 January 2019.

If you are unable to collect certificates yourself please provide a letter of authorisation for the person collecting on your behalf, they will need to provide a form of ID.

GCSE and equivalent

All students who have produced sufficient coursework to be considered for a grade are entered for the GCSE or equivalent examination, subject to parental authorisation to ensure continued attendance at school and progress in the period between the entry submission and the final assessment.
