Exam Information

Any students who have left BSCS and sat exams in the summer may collect certificates from the school reception during normal school hours. If you are unable to collect these certificates in person you can nominate a third party to collect on your behalf. However, they will need to bring a letter of authority and photo ID with them. You can also email BCS-exams@bradleystokecs.org.uk and provide details of your nominee.

Summer exam dates 2026

The 2026 contingency day is Wednesday 24th June 2026.  This is at the end of the GCSE, GCE AS, and A level examination timetable, serving as a backup to reschedule exams in the event of national or significant local disruption in the UK.
These contingency days are part of the awarding bodies' planned response to major events, such as extremely high temperatures or other emergencies, that could prevent exams from taking place as originally scheduled.  Students are required to remain available until the contingency day in case their exams need to be moved.
Personalised timetables showing the specific subjects that students are sitting this summer will be provided by the end of April.

In the meantime, please find below the full exam timetable for all qualifications delivered at Bradley Stoke Community School. This includes exams from all awarding bodies.
