The centre will inform candidates of their centre assessed marks as a candidate is allowed to request a review of the centre’s marking before marks are submitted to the awarding body.
Any review must be undertaken before marks are submitted to the awarding body. Sufficient time will be given to candidates in order to allow them to review copies of material, as necessary, and reach a decision. The centre will also allow sufficient time for the review to be carried out, to make any necessary changes to marks and to inform the candidate of the outcome, all before the awarding body’s deadline.
Please reference the Centre Assessed Marks Policy and the Internal Appeals Procedure (Internal Assessments) Policy should you be unhappy with your marks.
For all other policies such as the below, please send a request email on the contact page:
You must attend all examinations on your individual Candidate Statement of Entry.
Misreading the timetable will not be acceptable as an explanation for absence.
If you miss an exam due to illness, you must telephone the Examinations Officer on 01229 407386 as soon as possible on the morning of the exam.
A medical certificate should be forwarded to the Examination Officer within 3 days of the exam missed.
The designation of a ‘contingency day’ within the common examination timetable is in the event of national or local disruption to examinations. It is part of the awarding bodies’ standard contingency planning for examination.
2021/22 contingency day is Wednesday 29th June 2022. You must ensure you are available to attend the centre up to and including this date.
Guidance can also be sought from the 4 main exams boards the centre uses:
Should you have any questions or concerns, at any point, please do not hesitate to contact your key teacher, subject teacher, or the exams officer.
