Examinations

The situation still isn’t completely clear and where there is a lack of clarity, students should continue with their studies.

The latest advice from Pearson is that:

‘Where schools are open and a country is deemed safe, exams for International GCSE, and International A Level will take place for students outside of the UK in May and June 2020.

Where schools are closed and public exams are not permitted due to Covid-19, students will have the opportunity to receive a grade for qualifications where an entry has been made. These will be awarded using the same principles as the UK GCSE and GCE A Level which will not have exams in any country in May/June 2020. Further information will be available in the coming days confirming the process to be followed.’

We are awaiting clarification on how a country is deemed as being safe and whether current school closure counts as ‘where schools are closed’.

As soon as we have any further information, we will inform you.
