Year 10 Exams
Year 10 students will be sitting their non-core examinations from Thursday 18 June to Tuesday 23 June.
These exams will take place under full GCSE conditions to help prepare students for their formal examinations next year.
It is important that all students arrive fully prepared and equipped for each exam.
Please ensure your child brings the following:
- A clear pencil case
- Black pen(s)
- Any other required standard stationery
Please also note the following exam regulations:
No electronic devices are allowed, including mobile phones, smartwatches, or AirPods. Any such items must not be brought into the exam room unless students have a medical diagnosis and this has been agreed with the Exams Officer.
If students bring water, it must be in a clear bottle with the label removed.
Students who are entitled to access arrangements such as additional time, a scribe, or a reader—will receive these as normal in line with their usual support.
These expectations are in line with GCSE examination rules and help ensure a fair and consistent environment for all students.
We appreciate your support in reinforcing these requirements and encouraging your child to approach these exams with focus and preparation. Please also remind them of the importance of a good night’s sleep, breakfast and arriving to school on time for a punctual start
A copy of the exam timetable and revision lists have been posted on Showbie for the students and are attached.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact the school at year10@townsend.herts.sch.uk
Kind regards,
Miss N Beades
Head of Year 10
