EXAM CERTIFICATES

Certificates are important legal documents which are required for CVs, job applications and to verify the statement of results which was issued on results day. 

Please ensure that they are kept securely as the School does not keep a copy, and if you lose or never collect them you will need to liaise directly with the relevant exam board(s) and pay for certified statements of results.

Certificates must be collected from Charters School and any uncollected certificates will be held in School for  a maximum of one year after the release date, after which we are under obligation to destroy them.
