Procedure in case of late / delayed buses:
Candidates who arrive within one hour of the published starting time for an examination, which lasts an hour or more, will sit the paper and be allowed the full time allotted.
If candidates arrive after the first hour they will still sit the exam and an appeal will be made by the school to the awarding body to accept the work.
*Please note that the start time for morning exams is 9:00am. Students should make sure that they arrive at The Blake Theatre by 8:50am in order that they are ready for their morning exams.*
Each pupil will be given an individual timetable by Monday 13th March. Parents will receive an extra copy in the Easter mail out letter. If there are any concerns or questions the pupil should come to see Mr Pearson, once he has his individual timetable, and before the Easter holidays start.
