Parents of students due to sit exams this summer sometimes contact the school for their children’s timetables, so that they can book flights and holidays. Exam boards have recently notified us that they have designated Wednesday 26 June 2019 as a ‘contingency day’ for examinations. This would be used in the event of national or local disruption to public examinations.

While exam timetables have not yet been finalised, and we cannot yet be sure that there will not be any exams after this date, students due to sit exams** this summer must remain available until Wednesday 26 June 2019 should an exam board need to invoke its contingency plan.
