I’ve tried googling but not finding a clear answer!
Looking to book a break after kids finish doing GCSEs and A levels this year.
Thanks!

For A Level it's Wednesday 26 June. It's usually on the timetable if you find the one for GCSEs.

@PuppetQueen and @MissyB1 those are the dates of the last exam but pupils are supposed to remain available for the contingency date in case there is a major disruption and an exam has to be rescheduled.

The timetable above has confused me, that should stand for all boards shouldn’t it as all the exams take place at the same time for each subject?

My DD’s timetable from school shows a clash between History and Further Maths but that doesn’t seem to be an issue as per the timetable linked.
