Year 10 and Year 11 pupils who are completing coursework, non-examination assessments and written exams must adhere to the strict rules and regulations as directed by the JCQ and relevant exam. At Golborne High School, we expect our pupils to respect these national rules and regulations, model the Golborne Way and act accordingly in each situation to ensure each aspect of the assessment is carried out in the correct conditions. We ensure that our pupils have a full understanding, through SLT assemblies and subject lessons, of what is expected of them in each situation and utilise the formal mock examinations to best replicate the written examination environment at each key assessment point.
For each formal examination, candidates will receive an individual timetable, detailing the date, time and duration of each examination. These timetables will also include their seat number for each examination. The seating plan for each examination will be displayed on the noticeboard at the end of the Sports Hall corridor.
