We accept private candidates for external examinations during the summer series. We offer this service to help the local area as we understand how isolated we are from specialist private candidate centres.

This does, however, come with some restrictions. The exams must be purely paper based, and not include any practical, NEA, spoken endorsement or require the use of any specialised equipment. We are also not able to accept any private candidates requiring access arrangements. All candidates will be sat in the main exam hall in a separate row from our students. We are happy to organise a visit before your first examination to ease any worries you may have.
