The last date that students will need to be available for Summer 2026 exams is Wednesday 24th June. This is the JCQ contingency day in case of any interruption to exams nationally. All students must be available for exams up until this date. If the contingency date were so be used, and a student is not available, we would not be able to apply for special consideration.
Personalised timetables won't be available to be sent out until after February 2026. However, you can create your own timetable with My Big Year. You will just need to know which exam boards your subject is with. You can find out this information from your subject teacher or from the Exams Officer.
