Exam Information
Exams are run in line with JCQ regulations to ensure the integrity and security of the examination/assessment system is always maintained and not brought into disrepute.
Candidates are informed of these regulations during assemblies, tutor time and through correspondence, and they sign a form in school to confirm they have read and understood them.
All the documents are available below:

What to do if your child cannot attend an exam or experiences difficulties
In the unlikely event there is a situation where a student cannot attend an exam or is experiencing difficulties then we ask:
- Parents/Carers to phone into school before 8:30am if a student is unable to attend on the day explaining the reason why.
- Where a student is able to attend exams but is impacted by something such as injury, family bereavement etc please inform the exams team as soon as possible by emailing exams@northleamington.co.uk.
The Exams team will then be in touch to discuss how we can support and to liaise regarding any paperwork and evidence that would be needed if it was appropriate to make a request for special consideration to the awarding body, in line with the guidance.
The awarding of special consideration for circumstances at the time of the assessment is at the discretion of the awarding body, in line with the JCQ Guidance for Special Consideration and only goes a small way to compensating for any situation rather than replicating necessarily the student’s full capability. Wherever possible it is usually in the best interest of a student to sit the examination.
All examinations measure what a student knows and can do at the time of the assessment, and awarding bodies do not consider longer term circumstances that may have prevented a student from reaching the standards they may otherwise have done.
