6. Illness / Non-attendance
If you are genuinely very ill and unable to attend an exam, it is vital that you telephone the school straightaway. You really don’t want to miss any exam for any reason. If you miss an exam through illness, you must have a doctor’s letter detailing your symptoms and illness, signed and dated from the doctor. Please be aware that if you do not attend an exam without a valid reason or disqualification Parent/Carer’s will be liable for exam fees. If in doubt – phone Mrs. Bray at school on BEFORE THE STARTS
