Covid Update

20/06/20 The effects of the Corona Virus Pandemic – going forward
There are many questions about the future when it comes to the effects of Corona that no one knows the answer to …yet. The cancellation of this summer’s exam sittings was unprecedented and caught the exam centres ‘on the hop’. Most worked very hard to try to allocate as many grades as they could but many students chose to postpone sitting their exams and hope to sit them this autumn (CIE already have an autumn sitting and Edexcel added an extra set of exam sittings) or in January (Edexcel only) but there is no guarantee that these sittings will go ahead if we get a second wave of the virus.
We do know that the government and the exam boards are planning for these to go ahead and the exam centres are taking bookings. It is worth noting that in January the only Edexcel exams available will be IGCSE Biology, Chemistry, Physics and Maths (not Human Biology).
We are working with exam centres and exam boards going forward to see how we will be able to provide the evidence required for predicted grades to be awarded by the exam boards in the unlikely event that this happens again next summer. We strongly advise when you choose an exam centre this year you make sure you’re happy with the procedures they have in place should this be required next year.
Only the exam centre will be able to decide what evidence they will accept and send on to exam boards and the boards have clearly stated that changes will be made to what they accepted this year going forward. We are in close communication with centres to see what they will require. We do know that they will require a significant amount of evidence to be able to predict a grade and we continue to work with exam centres to identify what that is.

Congratulations to everyone on their exam results this year. With lots of them in now, we’ve had a wonderful 91% get a grade 6 (or C) or higher, which is brilliant. 43% got an 8 or 9 (A/A*) equivalent. Whatever you achieved, well done, and if you haven’t let your tutor know they always love to hear how you got on.

T is very pleased – got a 7, so an A in old terms. Really really happy with the result.

Thank you so much for all your help, your feedback was invaluable and definitely made a huge difference.

Just a line to let you know about one of your former distance-taught students. She just started this week her Physics degree at St Andrews. She took the IGCSE with you a few years ago. Her interest in physics only grew, and she’s already talking about her PhD. Thank you for helping make a formal start in her chosen discipline a great introduction!
