The awarding bodies have collectively agreed a contingency day for several years now which is always scheduled at the end of the GCSE and A’ Level exam timetables.
The contingency day is in the event of national or significant local disruption to exams in the UK, being part of the awarding bodies’ standard contingency planning for exams.
Following the Covid-19 pandemic, further resilience was needed within the exam timetables. A single contingency day was not felt to be sufficient if a national event or incident had a significant effect on the exam timetable. For example, summer exams could be affected by extremely high temperatures.
For the June 2023 exams, the awarding bodies have therefore introduced two additional half-day contingency sessions. These are on Thursday 8th June 2023 and Thursday 15th June 2023. The standard contingency day remains at the end of the timetable being scheduled on Wednesday 28th June 2023.
Schools and colleges should ensure candidates and parents are aware of the contingency arrangements on these three days. They should consider the contingency day of Wednesday 28th June 2023 when making their plans for the summer. Candidates should be encouraged to remain available until Wednesday 28th June 2023 should examinations need to be rescheduled.
Year 11 students will be receiving an Exam Statement of Entry during form time this week. Please check all details and entries are correct. Students are asked to take any queries to the Exams Office.
Please remember to top up your child’s cashless catering account via Parent Pay to ensure your child is able to purchase food at break and during lunchtimes.
You can click here to view the lunch menu, which changes each day.

With the practice expeditions for Silver and Gold DofE coming up in April, there will be an important meeting for all students.
If students can’t attend this meeting, they need to email Ms Dixon ndixon@lymmhigh.org.uk and then collect their paperwork from Mrs Hill in the school shop on Monday or Tuesday the following week.
There will also be a parent meeting on Monday 27th March 5–5:45pm via Microsoft Teams. The link will be sent out later this week. This meeting will confirm details about expedition locations, drop-off and collection points, food, emergency contact numbers, kit and equipment, and will be an opportunity to ask any questions you may have.
With the exam season just around the corner we want to ensure that we are utilising every opportunity to support and encourage our Year 11 students to achieve their potential. Therefore, we thought it would be useful to provide a couple of updates and advice to best support your child over Easter and beyond.
