NO national exams will be happening in the UK.

Who knows when international air travel will ever return to what we are used to? No-one knows how this will pan out. Borders are temporarily closed/closing.

All boarders at our school have gone home to their respective countries in the last few weeks. Saving lives is the priority.

This is the message on the Pearson website this afternoon:

Where schools are open and a country is deemed safe, exams for iPrimary, iLowerSecondary, 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.
