Exams and Assessments
Overview of External Exams
At the end of their time with us, all students take external exams. As a school, we are required to implement a precise set of requirements in the management of these external exams. These rules are governed by the Joint Council for Qualifications (JCQ), and every centre conducting exams – of which we are one – is required to follow them. Failure to adhere to these regulations could result in the centre losing its licence, so it is vital that all students know, understand and follows the rules, which they will be informed of before and during each assessment period.
