Summer 2027 Public Exams  

The JCQ have stated that all students must be available until 23rd June 2027 in case any exams need to be rearranged due to a local or national emergency. This means that even though the exam board timetables may show that a student completes their exams in mid-June, they should not be making any plans at this stage to be away until after 23rd June.
