Exam schedules

Students in KS4 are assessed either by exams or Controlled Assessments.

Controlled Assessments take place in timetabled school lessons, but are conducted under exam-like conditions. Students should prepare for Controlled Assessments as if they were exams. All Controlled Assessments count for a proportion of the final GCSE qualification.

The key dates for modular examinations, controlled assessments (CCAs) and other important events for KS4 students in 2011-12 are listed below. This list can also be downloaded as a pdf here.

Information about Year 11 exams is available on the Year 11 page.

Information about Science exam modules for Year 10 is available on the Year 10 page.
