Examinations

 For all examination related enquires please contact our Examination Team - Mrs P Sherwood and Mrs A Kozakowska

Statement of Entry 

All candidates who have been entered for a public exam will be given a statement of entry, showing personal details and school details. The statement shows the exams that they are due to take and also the dates and sessions. It is the candidate’s responsibility to check that the personal details are correct, (as these will appear on their certificates), that they are entered for the correct exam/s and also that they have no clashes with other subjects.
The candidate is given two identical copies of the statement of entry – one to keep and one to sign and date and return to the Exams Office verifying correct entries.

Examination Timetables

Candidates will be issued with an individual timetable prior to the exams. This will show the clash resolutions, exact start times, exam venues and also their seat number. The candidate’s exam candidate number is on the top of the timetable and this should be memorised as it should be written on each exam paper that is completed. Candidates are advised to note the start time of the exam as this can be misread.

Sixth Form candidates are expected to follow their normal dress code. Please wear warm clothing as we cannot guarantee the temperature of all rooms. Lanyards must be brought to each exam venue for proof of identity.
