All certificates will be posted first class and to be signed for, as soon as they arrive in school, around mid November/early December every year. We will not hold any certificates in school.
Please look after your certificates as they are the official documents that you will need to provide universities/employers etc. Please note we are not allowed to keep copies of certificates and if you have lost or mislaid them you will need to contact each exam board direct for replacements.
