RE: Year 11 and 13 Public Examinations 2024 24th April 2024
Dear Parent/Carer,
With this year’s public examinations fast approaching, I wanted to provide clear guidance as to how the examination process will work at the academy, including the times of exams and expectations we have of our students during this time.
Students have already been issued with their personalised examination timetable, which also has their designated seat number. I have attached an overview of the exam timetable at the end of this letter. Where possible, morning and afterschool revision sessions will take place to support students. Students will be informed where to go for these sessions.
Exam Timings
AM:
PM:
* Please note, some exam candidates may have a clash with multiple exams taking place at the same time. In this case, students will be aware of this on their exam timetable. As a result, students may finish much later than the normal school day.
Student Expectations
As a school, we are bound by JCQ’s (Joint Council for Qualifications) rules and regulations for administering examinations. The following warning must be adhered to by all candidates and will be displayed outside each examination venue.
Exam Contingency Day
For the June 2024 exams, the awarding bodies have introduced two additional half-day contingency sessions. These are on Thursday 6 June 2024 and Thursday 13 June 2024. The standard contingency day remains at the end of the timetable being scheduled on Wednesday 26 June 2024 across the whole country. Students must be available for these dates.
Exam Results Days 2024
The examination results days for 2024 are as follows:
A-Level- Thursday 15th August
GCSE- Thursday 22nd August
Further information regarding the timings will be updated on our website closer to the time. Results will be issued to students, in person, on this date. Results will not be given to anyone else, including parents/guardians, without written permission from the student. Any parent/guardian with written permission to collect results, must provide photo ID on results day. Results will not be issued over the phone or by email.
We would like to wish all students the very best during the examination season.
Thanks you for your continued support.
Yours sincerely
Mr G Uppal
Assistant Principal
