What a fantastic first day back for our Year 7 students! They had the amazing opportunity to dive into the world of Gamelan music, a traditional Indonesian ensemble made up of gongs, xylophones, drums, and metallophones which create a truly unique and mesmerising sound! pic.twitter.com/wWzvinQUCM

EXAMS INFORMATION FOR STUDENTS

The Examinations Office at Hinchley Wood School are here to help students through the examination process, both internal and mock exams (years 9-13) and the public exams (year 11 and 13).

There are lots of rules and regulations surrounding public exams that all schools have to adhere to. Information regarding the rules and regulations surrounding exams are included in this section of the website and explained to students in assemblies and tutor time from year 9 onwards.

The internal/mock exams are run as closely as possible to the public exams so that all students have an understanding of what is expected of them. There are consequences if rules are breached (known as malpractice) in any exam, however in public exams this could lead to disqualification from an exam.

Our team ensure that we adhere to the relevant regulations and that examinations are administered fairly to all students.

If you have any questions regarding exams please contact Sally Nestor, Examinations Manager at
snestor@hinchleywoodschool.co.uk
