Examination, Revision & Dates
We are proud of the rigorous, broad and inclusive manner in which we prepare our young people for formal examination assessment in a realistic setting.
At The Heys School, we operate a system of assessment throughout the academic year. This is supported by formal examinations in the student’s appropriate exam setting.
Examination timetables are compiled and published prior to each examination window. The dates of scheduled formal assessments for 2023-24 are currently as follows:
- Year 11 Examinations Monday 20th November 2023 and Thursday 30th November 2023
- Year 11 Summer Exam Series 2024
- Y10 Summer Mock Examinations – Monday 24th June – Friday 28th June
Prior to all examination windows, students will be aided in revision methods, creating appropriate revision resources and/or given the opportunity to purchase high-quality resources.
Purposeful revision, consistent practice and parental support have all been shown to have a positive impact on student attainment and progress.
