RESULTS DAYS 2020

We recognise how different the awarding of results this year will be. Please read through the information on this page for full details on how this will work.

Our overriding aim this year is that every student gets to the destination of their choice, and we will be here for students every step of the way.

A level Results

It is with sadness that we will be unable to welcome students into school to share in the delights and successes of their achievements in the way that we have done in the past. Results will be published to Insight by 9am on Thursday 13^th August. We will supply grades for all subjects entered by students as issued by the exam boards. We have already asked students to check whether they can log on to Insight to see their results, but should there be any concerns with this, please follow instructions here.

Wood Green students who study a subject at The Henry Box School or Abingdon and Witney College will receive these results via email from Wood Green School. This result will not be on Insight, but any results of exams sat at Wood Green School will be. Henry Box students who have taken an exam at Wood Green School should use their Insight login too.

Please note that exam results will only be issued to students themselves and cannot be released to parents or carers.

For students who have applied to UCAS (which covers the vast majority of students), students will hear at home early in the morning before the A Level results are released whether they have been successful with their application; collection of results in school therefore becomes almost a secondary part of the process.

Support

Our absolute priority amongst all of this is to ensure that students get into the destination of their choice, and we will endeavour to go above and beyond our normal levels of support to ensure that every student who requires additional support receives this on A level results day, or the day after. We will be able to anticipate where there are problems and have ready support for the student available and we will be able to target this to them personally. Because this will not involve looking at what happened in the exam, we can focus on working with the student and their family to get students to the best possible destination.

As soon as you have any concerns regarding your results, please contact the following address:

examresults@wgswitney.org.uk

Please outline in this email the nature of what you would like to discuss following receipt of your awarded grades, and one of the team will be in touch with you as soon as possible to offer advice and guidance. Please contact this address rather than emailing the office or your teachers, who will not be able to offer the required level of support. We will prioritise students who have not achieve a desination of their choice.

Autumn Examinations

The Autumn exam series will run from Monday 5^th October to Friday 23^rd October. A definitive timetable for these exams has yet been finalised by Ofqual. Exam entries must be submitted by 1st September, and details on how to do so can be found here. If you wish to discuss the merits of doing this, please contact us on examresults@wgswitney.org.uk. We will continue to offer support to all students who wish to go through this process.

GCSE Results

The process for GCSE results will be similar to A level results.

Results will be published to Insight by 9am on Thursday 20^th August. We will supply grades for all subjects entered by students as issued by the exam boards.

Please note that exam results will only be issued to students themselves and cannot be released to parents or carers.
