A-level exam timetable

GCSE exam timetable

Please be aware that MFL speaking exams will be scheduled separately in the first 4 weeks after the Easter holidays

Contingency Days

Each year the exam boards identify specific days as ‘contingency days’ to be used in case some of the timetabled exams sessions cannot take place on the timetabled days due to national or significant local disruptions.

This year the dates of the contingency days are:

  • 11 June 2025, afternoon
  • 5 June 2025, all day

Therefore, we remind all candidates that they must be available on these days in case an exam board invokes its contingency plan.

A level Results Day is on Thursday 14 August 2025.

GCSE Results Day is on Thursday 21 August 2025

Post Results Services

Post Results services are available after results are issued. They include:

  • Clerical Re-Check – to see if all marks have been added up correctly
  • Review of Marking – to check if the mark scheme was adhered to correctly
  • Access to Scripts

Before students submit a request for a review of marking, they must note that – as a result of a review:

  • the original grade can go down
  • the original grade can go up
  • the original grade can remain the same

If a grade is lowered as a result of a review request, it is not possible to return to the original grade.

Furthermore, Post Results Services incur fees to be paid by parents/carers. The fees are per unit/component (not per subject), and have to be paid in advance via ParentMail.
