What is the process if I am unable to collect my results? 

• If you wish any other person (including family members) to collect your results on your behalf, you must send in a signed letter of authorisation to the school Exams Office with the name of the individual collecting the results.  On results day this person must have proof of identity (e.g. driving licence; debit card; passport etc.).
• Please do not telephone or email school for your exam results as we are unable to give out results by telephone or email.
• Results for GCE and GCSE not collected or posted on Results Day will be retained in school for collection at the start of term. 

When will I receive my exam certificates? 

• Certificates arrive in school about three months after you have received your results and will be presented to you at Presentation Evening (Thursday 23^rd November 2023) more details will follow in the Autumn term.
• If you are unable to attend Presentation Evening you can collect your certificates from school at any time after Presentation Evening.
• Certificates may be collected on behalf of the candidate by a third party, provided they have written authorisation to do so. You must send in a signed letter of authorisation to the schools Exams Office with the name of the individual collecting the certificates.
• The person collecting your certificates must have proof of identity (e.g. driving licence, debit card, passport etc.).
• We are unable to put exam certificates in the post.
• Certificates will be retained by the school for one year. After this time, applications for replacement certificates should be made directly to the relevant Awarding Bodies (Exam Board). The Exam Boards charge a substantial fee for replacement certificates so please do try and collect them from school in the Autumn. 

We look forward to seeing you all on the dates mentioned above!
