Dear Parents and Carers,

Welcome and I hope this finds you well.

My name is Kat and I am the Exams Officer at 51ÊÓÆµ School. I have joined the team in 2023 and have worked hard to gain the knowledge required for this role to be able to support our students efficiently. After another successful series in summer 2025,  I can start all preparations and planning for the new academic year ahead.

Our students are working very hard and are committed to succeed and achieve their goals and I am here to support them on their exam’s pathway.

I am communicating with teachers, who submit entries with me, I will then enter students for the qualifications proposed and ensure their details are correct and applications are made to their individual needs and to deadlines set out by the awarding bodies. I oversee the arrival of the exam papers, the exam day, where exams are sat under JCQ regulations and the postage of the exam papers to the exam board for moderation after the exam.

Exam Administration is an ever-ongoing process, and no day is the same – being organised and prepared is vital for this role.

The Cycle of Exams:

Preparation

Entry

Exams Day

Results Day

Post Results Services

The exam results day for this academic year 2025-26 is Thursday 20th August 2026.

Letters will be send home mid-June with information on how to contact me on this day and post result services. The letter will include a results consent form that should be signed by the candidate to enable me to pass on results to parents/ carers/ guardians over the phone if a candidate wishes not to speak to me. All results will also be posted out on results day. Certificates will be provided by the awarding bodies normally in the later part of autumn in the new academic year around November time for GCSEs, on demand certificates are usually provided within 28 days.

Wishing the best of luck to every student this coming academic year!

If you have any questions, I am happy to help – please email kat.ryan@percyhedley.org.uk

Yours sincerely,

Kat Ryan
