My dd has an opportunity to spend the summer in Italian working in a bakery and we want to book flights but I can't seem to find out any information about when GCSE's finish. Anybody know?

Contact the school and ask them what her last day of the academic year will be.

She will also be available to collect her certificates, late August, and enrol around the same time, for further education.

Possibly not because of enrolment which can only be done by her.

Yr 11's legally finish school on the last Friday in June, as all exams for all exam board have to be completed by then. Parents can normally collect exam results on their behalf as long as the school has had her permission to release them to you. Not normally a problem for most schools.
