Exam timetables​

Here is the published Summer 2026 examination timetable.

Candidate information​

All students taking public examinations must read the JCQ information for candidates.

The LRS issues Unique Learner Numbers (ULN) and creates Personal Learning records across England, Wales, and Northern Ireland, and is operated by the Education and Skills Funding Agency, an executive agency of the Department for Education (DfE). For more information about how information is processed, and to access your Personal Learning Record, please read the LRS privacy notice.

Internal Appeals Procedures​

Please read our internal appeals procedures.

Collection of results and certificates​

In the spring term each year, we contact past students to arrange the collection of their official certificates. If examination documents are being collected by a third party, the candidate must complete the required permission form and the collector must bring valid photo ID.

Post-results services​

After results are published, this form can be used to request access to scripts, reviews of marking, and clerical checks. The form includes information about the costs of these services and the deadlines for requesting them.
