Notice of Exam Contingency Day

Wednesday 24th June 2020

The qualification regulators, JCQ and government departments responsible for education have jointly agreed that an Exam contingency day is put in place in the event of national or local disruption to the examinations system affecting a significant number of candidates.
The Exam Boards have designated Wednesday 24th June 2020 as the contingency day for summer 2020. All students must therefore remain available to sit their examinations up to and including Wednesday 24th June 2020 should an exam board need to invoke its contingency plan.
