​Summer 2025 A Level and GCSE Exam Contingency dates:

Contingency dates are put in place to allow resilience in the A Level and GCSE examination timetables, helping to ensure that the exam series runs smoothly in the event of national or significant local disruption to exams. For summer 2025, the awarding bodies have designated contingency dates as follows:

​

• Wednesday 11 June 2025 – afternoon session

• Wednesday 25 June 2025 – morning and afternoon sessions

​​

All pupils sitting examinations in summer 2025 must ensure that they remain available until after Wednesday 25 June 2025.​​

Where an awarding body is required to invoke its contingency plan during the summer exam series, and reschedule an exam to a scheduled contingency session, where a candidate is unavailable, they will not be eligible for special consideration.

​

Summer 2025 A Level and GCSE Results Days:

• A Level Results Day: Thursday 14 August 2025

• GCSE Results Day: Thursday 21 August 2025

Exam Information for Candidates

​​

A Level and GCSE examination certificates (June 2025)

• We will inform you as soon as certificates are ready for collection.

• For students currently in Sixth Form, certificates will be issued via form tutor groups.

​

For students who have now left school, you should arrange to collect your certificate(s) from the main reception Monday to Friday between 09:00am and 4:00pm. If you are unable to collect your certificate(s) between these times, please contact the Exams Officer.

​

If you are unable to collect your certificate(s) and wish for a nominated individual to collect these on your behalf, an ‘Examination Certificate Collection Form’ should be downloaded via the link below, and returned to the Exams Officer at the time of collection. All nominated individuals must provide photographic ID and all certificates must be signed for; in the absence of candidate permission, certificates cannot be issued.

​

Once certificates have been collected and signed for, these should be kept in a safe place; we as a school do not retain copies of exam certificates and if misplaced, you will need to contact the awarding bodies directly to request replacements for which a significant fee will be charged per requested certificate.
