Collection of Examination Certificates 

Where possible, students should collect their certificates in person, during normal opening hours and they will be asked to sign acknowledging receipt. If however they are unable to do this, they must provide written permission for someone else to collect and sign on their behalf. A signed, written note or an email (which must be sent from a personal email address of the student) is acceptable. These must name the person collecting on their behalf.

Please note that we cannot release certificates to anyone other than the student without written permission.

Access Arrangements

Access arrangements are agreed before an assessment. They allow candidates with specific needs, such as special educational needs, disabilities or temporary injuries to access the assessment and show what they know and can do without changing the demands of the assessment. The intention behind an access arrangement is to meet the needs of an individual candidate without affecting the integrity of the assessment. Access arrangements are the principal way in which awarding bodies comply with the duty under the Equality Act 2010 to make ‘reasonable adjustments’. The school follows the Joint Council for Qualifications (JCQ) regulations for Access Arrangements and adopts a whole school approach involving the SENDCo, Teaching Staff, Support staff, Exams Officer and a team of Specialist Assessors. To see a summary of the process used to establish Access Arrangements for students click here.

Use of Calculators in Exams 

Candidates may use a calculator in an examination, unless this is prohibited by an Awarding Body (Examination Board) specification. For full details, please refer to the document "JCQ Instructions for Conducting Exams" (chapter 2 - section 10).

Candidates are responsible for ensuring that their calculator meets Awarding Body regulations.

Further details can also be found in the JCQ document "FAQs - Using Calculators".
