If pupils have any questions about the exam season, please refer to the booklet they were given in February called Candidate Booklet Written Exams. You can download a copy here. If you still have questions please come to the Exam Office in S38 or email your query to examinations@princethorpe.co.uk

A-level results - 16 August 2018
School opens at 7.00am. Results will be published to the portals at 9.00am and any uncollected results envelopes will be posted home that day.

GCSE results - 23 August 2018
For Year 11 pupils, school opens at 9.00am and any uncollected results envelopes will be posted home that day. For all GCSE pupils, results will be published to the portals at 10.00am.

If a pupil wants someone else to collect their results, they will need to advise the exams office. This can be done by email from their school email address and must include the full name of the person collecting the results. The named person will need to bring photo ID when they come to collect the results. Alternatively, pupils can come to the Exam Office in S38 and complete a request form.

Please note results cannot be given out over the telephone.

Exams information (timetables, seating, results) is available to pupils on the pupil portal. For parents to see this information on the parent portal, pupils need to enable access to each exam section, instructions are in your booklet. If you can’t remember your login details for the pupil portal, they are the same as you use to login to the school computers.

Mrs Shellagh Dodds
Examinations Officer

Formal lessons end for Year 11 on Friday 11 May 2018 and the GCSE exam period runs from Monday 14 May 2018 until Friday 15 June 2018 (except for those doing the AQA Certificate in Further Maths on 18 and 19 June 2018).

During the exam period the school timetable will operate as normal. Should Year 11 pupils wish to study supervised in school they need only follow their normal timetable, bringing with them whatever revision materials they wish to use for whichever subject they wish to study. However they also have the option of studying at home if they wish, coming in only for their timetabled exams.

It is important that we have a record of who will be in school on any particular day and at what times so if you have not done so already, please complete the form below indicating when your son or daughter will be in school and return it immediately to Mrs Satchwell.
